Don't rush your next move, wealth is oftentimes slowly built, yet quickly lost.  

Monthly expenses of $2500 require an emergency fund start with getting a month ahead, the 2,3.

All you need to do is the 3rd property, and if you gave away 50%, you would be ahead...and still moving forward just as fast.I would still recommend that you pursue wholesaling, in addition to the partner/refi plan.  

I try not to get ahead of myself but I want to make sure I take action. 

To those that got teeth in the game or hobby looking to scale to an actual business this is a heads up.

I'd definitely be intested in hearing what your experience has been if you did go ahead and invest. 

Ben, don't make me throw a head lock on you and throw you on your lap top with a guru slam!

Just by setting up an account you will save over list shelf price.Another thing that I am just beginning to implement is a little more extreme and you have to think a little bit ahead but with a little planning most people can do it and save good money. 

Just make sure you know the dangers of whichever route you take so you can have a plan B prepared ahead of time if things go bad.  

This may sound counterproductive, but you end up miles ahead in the end...and it wa a very short "trip" to that end for me.1)  Sell both properties to an investor to get your cash out...since you have no liens on the properties, you get all the cash.
