And a lot of top producing agents simply have better things to do then to try to chase tenants to make a whopping 200.00 a month cash flow.. their down payment money put back into their marketing would increase their income 10X or more compared to owning rentals.. 

Producing more energy than we consume= net zero.

I have become more and more interested in investing and would like to continue insurance as it is a good source of residual income however it means I am not eligible for a traditional loan for some time.I know that many people quit their jobs in order to focus on RE and part of me considers doing that as well but still unsure on how to go about doing that with producing an income stream first or keeping a W2 job.If anyone has any suggestions on this it would be greatly appreciated.

Many producers are backed up with requests and put you on the back burner until their hotter deals cool off or close.I'd ask to speak to a chief lending officer, ceo or svp.

I will say that the reason I chose to start a business rather than a non-profit for a sustainable goal was that I think for-profit businesses can often produce more leverage and throw more weight around.

It is your house, you can choose the best tenant that fits your needs to produce the lowest risk of non-payment.3) Im not all too familiar with Raleigh, but I know compared to Onslow County, it is more expensive.

For rental properties generating 1-4% income yearly,what are the main characteristics you look for prior to investing?

If this is not possible and they start giving you escuses, tell them you need to make money from the property and right now it is not producing.

@Whitney HuttenThat’s the plan if I can pull it off for a fsbo but the appraisal condition is something I didn’t think of so I appreciate that.

Thanks for the input @Whitney Hutten!
