I only have one rental at the moment but I have the opportunity to acquire two properties for a total of 45k.

While I don't own any rentals at the moment I know several people who do.

I agree with the others that it is very possible to do both a 40 hour W-2 job and do a RE investing biz, but it does have it's moments and difficulties.Bottome line, for a wholesaling biz to work and be profitable you MUST first build a buyers list and that requires time and efforts.

Say what comes in that moment.

Now before anyone goes and burst my bubble here...just let me enjoy this moment for what it is...and that being that we have immediate interest in our rental!

You put yourself in a tough spot when you say you don't want to lose the deal.I get it - they are putting you in a tough spot but the moment you say you don't want to lose a deal your adding to the rock and hard place.

I will only be allowing a select few, for a very limited moment to buy into this dream strategy.

Is there any hope for someone with VERY BAD credit (me) but with steady and hopefully secure income (social security) along with my brother with virtually NO credit or so so credit who unfortunately is unemployed at the moment but let's consider for these purposes that he would have a job at time of purchase (QUESTION...does a vet HAVE TO have a job for over a year to get a VA Home Loan?)...

Even Florida has got to be better for long distance than Ohio - there are lots of cheap properties in Florida at the moment, and it may have bottomed out.

Save that $250 a month you're collecting at the moment until you have at least a few grand in the account.
