Marquez If you're brand new to real estate, I would strongly recommend investing in some education first.

So, I would get back all my previously invested cash (500k) and return a 400k construction loan.8k - 5.7 - 1k (ins + taxes) = 1.3k/month. 1.3k should cover Vacancy, Repairs, CapEx (as 2 units are brand new ones and 1 is just remodeled), Management0 or almost 0 cash flow, 0 invested own money and appreciacion for triplex in East bay Area.

I am brand new to this world.

There are a few near the domain but they aren't brand new.

I am brand new to this realm, and have lots of questions.

I'm brand new to BP so I will try to reach out to you and hopefully we can connect.

I have also felt like buying the "fixer-uppers" are almost the same price as buying a home that was rehabbed in the last 5-10 years with brand newer mechicals and kitchen bathrooms.

From a financing strategy perspective, one method we thought might fit well is buying with cash (which we have for house one), then rehabbing and taking from a 5 BR single story to a 10 BR, and then refinancing.

I am Tony, brand new into Real Estate Investing.
