If you have been at your current job for 2+ years then normally you can count anything you get including bonuses (if recieved for 2+ years, overtime, and or commissions)I am looking at the debts you listed and I am led to believe that there are many things missing such as an auto payment, credit card debt, student loans, etc.

Trade Cards, Follow up.....see what resale prices are.

(my target is at least $500 net after all proper reserves per home)Do you see any major strategic flaw in this plan?

Sale 7 properties (some with liens/ some without) to the same person at the same time.Place all left over proceeds with the proper 1031 agent ( closing attorney).Use all the left-over proceeds as a down-payment for a much larger complex (will be identified prior to sale).

A lot of companies can’t answer that question.When they can’t answer that question, in my opinion, they have not properly defined their strength, and don’t understand what competitive advantage they can deliver to their investors.

Question for you...Let's say you walk into a networking event, whether it's real estate related or not, do you bring a business card?

There isn't enough information to give a proper assessment.

Prices kept risingNow I am playing in Detroit, building costs in the last 12 months has increased by 10% a good signCurious do other investors look at this Makes perfect sense to me, Marisa unless builders are getting increasingly pulled to the suburbs and build prices are rising simply to entice them to Detroit proper (not sure that's necessarily a bad thing though either).Curious where you're getting this data.

I think you should be talking to an escrow officer at a Title company if you want this done properly.

Talk to people, trade business cards, network, ask questions.
