What would be the most effective way of using that time in a way that will benefit my future in REI?

Welcome to BP, hope you enjoy the benefits.

Are there benefits to doing the FHA streamline and what are the cons if there are any?

I would like to give her the benefit of the doubt, but as they say, "fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, it's all on me."

Hello BP CommunityLooking for a little bit of guidance here...I have been spending quite a bit of my free time learning about the benefits of REI and decided recently that I will be pursuing a buy + hold strategy to build some long term wealth.

The benefits and the detrements of their current course.I am so surprised the MH manufactures seem so weak and silent, least not in the forums that I might hear.

CF rentals also have benefit of paper lossesGood strategy.

I've been reading about creative financing options like "rent to own", and "subject to" and could see that there are a lot benefits in using those strategies.  

Senior Citizen tax benefits hint that the owner might be dead so I also check the Social Security Death Index (Ancestry.com, subscriber service).CAMA.

Having your Real Estate License is a huge benefit, and that is something that I'm considering down the road if not sooner.
