I am more than likely going to obtain my license to just help gain an understanding of the workings of the real estate business and laws. 

I do have a rough idea of how I would like things to turn out, and whether or not it is reasonable I won't really know until I further my understanding of investments. 

I'm not understanding pricing here. 

My understanding is that the contract for deed has the same due on sale clause risks as a subject-to, and gives me less legal protections.

I understand what it takes to work hard, sow all day / night and wait for the fruits of the tree to develop before one can reap.  

Hi David, thank you for this it is an interesting read and there is lots of good food for thought.But for me I am not a fan of Syndication, (yet) and I do believe that the main reason for this is the lack of direct control I end up having.I have ventured into Partnerships over the years and with the exception of the one I have with my wife, none of them worked well for me, I understand this is more than likely a result of my approach to them, so I am confident that I can make it work, to me its a matter of finding the right place, and after a lot of conversations about Memphis I have decided this is not where I want my first Large Apartment purchase to be.I am now going to expand my search into Texas and possibly other surrounding states to see what can be found.

.$74,900 - $49,500 = $25,400 in equity Maybe I'm I don't understand what ROI is

Can you kindly suggest any reading material that have helped you understand deal analysis more.

I understand in some jurisdictions, window screens, door screens, and porch screens may be required, but if not, then remove that feature.
