@Lindsey Johnson I don’t do direct mail marketing personally but have been watching some educational videos on it through a course I just started.

This was an off-market deal that my wife found through her personal network.

This venture was not just a business endeavor; it was a commitment to community and an expression of my values.

I think the world is moving towards a need for a person to have to have multiple streams of income even if one wants to buy Real Estate. 

@Mounish Thatikonda, while I can't speak in too much detail about the financing side, I will note that I have never built a house, but had talked to lenders in the past, and they were willing to finance a new construction house for me with full personal guarantee and a reputable builder contracted to manage the construction.  

My personal portfolio consists of 4 rental properties and a total of 8 units, with 5 of those units being utilized as a STR. 

It's only for the lazy and unorganized person.

I am a self employed person and don't have W2 to qualify for conventional or FHA financing. 

Are you saying that for one year after a property owner has lost a home in a tax-deed sale, they can still get it back from the person who bought it at auction if they pay off all fees related to the property?
