I do have an empty lot next to my current SFH , doing nothing (but costing me money to mow :)) my thought was to build a detached guest cottage to serve as an overflow for guests or it could also serve as a seasonal / monthly rental.

At one point I had the thought of trying to get into the weeds of the property myself but ultimately decided that it wouldn't be worth it, for me at least.Anyway, the point is that I want it to not look the way it does lol. 

@Brandon Croucier what skills do you suggest I learn that will help me in wholesaling

My name is Tommy and I'm new to the REI world but I've had the desire to get into it since I bought my first  home - primary residence in 2020 but never had the capital to start.

He sources properties for me from off market, auctions, MLS if it works, direct from seller, good wholesale deals. 

Let me know what you all think and if I missed anything that I should have considered.

Feel free to reach out or send me an email I can walk you through a few locations based on your preference.There are also some other great counties that a lot of people are not really talking about yet I can share those as well.

Hey Erik,It's not what they are offering that is making me uneasy.

Can someone tell me how this works? 

Thankfully my job covers my insurance completely and gives me 20k in equity every year but no 401k match.
