I have automatic MLS listings coming from my agent daily but I'm curious if I should use taxes on the listing compared to other sources.

Once complete, Rithm At Uptown will be one of the largest, mixed-use innovation communities in the state with capacity for more than seven million square feet of development, including several thousand residential units.

They don’t come along often, but you will speed your process immensely when you find those types of properties.  ($8,400 x 15 years is $126,000 in rent alone)... neglecting rent increases, etc).The take away is that good money can be made in real estate, and until you get into it, you won’t enjoy the spoils, however you ultimately use them.

Your plan definitely seems  solid, but to follow up on what @Avery Rustad mentioned, using your capital to work for you could help speed up the process (if that's your goal).

@Alex Pendleton when you say cashfliw on the cape, I automatically assume weekly rentals, but I would be interested to hear more about your business model out that way.The cape isn't too far from Fall River where most of my portfolio currently is, but I am not sure if I could convince my property manager to go that far, lolDo you self manage?

Would I be wasting an agent's time by asking to be put on automatic emails for new properties that come onto the market, or is this pretty simple and painless task on the agent's end?

Trulia automatically set the interest rate for an FHA loan at 0%, and I’m not sure why.

Ten years ago when I was working for a financial institution, any time I walked away from my desk it was automatically assumed I was talking real estate (9 times out of 10 I wasn't). 

I live in a home that i would like to make my first rental property, which needs a ton of work. my credit score wont allow me to finance a pack of gum, so im unable to get a heloc. and my job doesnt pay me enough to have a savings. i have been doing a few diy projects here and there but at this rate i will have my property ready for rent in 2040. any suggestions on what i can do to speed up my renovation project to get this house rented out sooner?

Again, if you use a good real estate agent, they should have 3-4 good, reliable, fair contractors for each major component of a housing unit on speed dial.
