I have my personal homes and an adult disabled daughter's home in a Trust now. 

But, on this website it seems pretty routine that people contribute in their own way while also getting their business out there in the REI community. 

As far as working with an Investor/Agent, you have to develop a trust and understanding that you wont step on each others toes, find your own deals, dont just sit and wait for your agent to email you deals, be diligent in your search, watch every day, look at the auctions, and  MLS, every day or even several times a day, its part of my routine.

So about 23k, plus you have to factor in vacancies, routine repairs and maintenance, repaining the place every 5 years or so, and any other expenses that come up, such as power and water expenses while showing a vacant house.I have three townhouses right now, two at 1% and one that i'm living in now that will be around 1.3%.

I understand the basic routine, however, I need to go through the process myself.

It's easier to hold yourself accountable when there's a routine.

However, the first is handwritten (which deal machine should now do as well, its printed but in handwriting) and then he follows up with printed and then the last one is also handwritten.I'm new to the game and learning, but he's already had a few deals through his routine.

If the only income is retirement or disability, neither of those are garnishable, so the judgments are not a risk.

@Jazlynn GibbsJust go about your normal routine for RE investing and it really shouldn't matter if you think that is going to happen in 2020.

Some people think this should not be called "investing", but rather "speculating", but others seem to be quite successful at it.On the other hand, there are parts of the country (midwest, rustbelt) where people routinely hit the 2% rule and therefore tend to cash-flow quite well.
