A good contractor might ask for a third upfront but you can work with them on that.

House rules were easy to change by the board but bylaws need usually two thirds to 100% owner approval. 

My wife and I just started our education about 8-10 months ago and have secured two rental properties and am looking for a third investment property now.

I've already attended two meetups (both more like sales pitches for their programs/boot camps), and will be attending my third this week.  

If you are using hard money you need to budget for the points and fees as well as traditional third party closing fees.Repairs: The money it is going to take you to rehab the property plus an extra 10% of estimated repair costs to account for unexpected repairs.Holdings Costs: Here is where a lot of investors get tripped up.

"I don't think I'll get as lucky as you" is what I'll often hear.I work a 9-5 and I have flipped 2 houses (about to start the third) since February and I am working on my first wholesale deal as we speak.

To buy REOs from third parties, bid on auction.com.

Now my question is this on the third deal I have more than enough for 30% on the property. 

When I sold my townhouse years also, long before I was an a RE agent, after the buyer requested their third extension due to financing,I said no.

Third one.
