Lastly, (and probably the most obvious) does the state of Wisconsin require a Brokers/ RE License in order to wholesale?

Think of all the things that could go wrong and see if the lease addresses them: unauthorized pets or tenants, early termination, security deposit, lease violations, late rent, eviction, lawn maintenance, parking, etc.5.

Just started my FI journey and am starting my investing journey.

Three good steps are to 1) buy for cash flow, not appreciation, 2) secure debt that is longer in term than your projected hold period, 3) have adequate upfront reserves.

Lower income people absolutely deserve safe, secure homes, but from an investor's perspective, the risk of non-payment, eviction, squatting, and general turnover is simply higher with a lower-income tenant pool.

The seller gets to have some kind of return on his money instead of putting it in the bank, his money will be secured by the property so if I default, he can take it back, he gets a check in the mail each month during retirement, and I don't have to move into a 1 bd/ 1 ba unit with my family.

We decided not to enter into a lease with her but wanted to know if we must return all, part or none of her Security deposit?

We are looking for an experienced investor real estate agent to work with in Kenosha County market for buy and holds. The agent we had been working with has moved out of state. Thank you for your suggestions.

Thank God for what you have and invest to secure your family's future... don't do this so you can blow your money on top dollar worthless items.
