We are definitely willing to be patient and learn as much as possible while looking for a deal.

This helped with the security and safety emotional concerns in the interim.

Patients and staying passionate about learning will pay off.  

For me as a value investor the key requirement is to have a margin of safety and one of the main ways to have a margin of safety with income properties is to have good positive cash flow.Some people have hard boundaries around cash flow, like a deal must cash on cash 10 or 12% but in a 2.2% 10yr Treasury world to get that kind of spread requires battling in war zones or taking on serious risk of some kind.

You're planning on walking a tight rope with no safety net on your first deal.  

I currently work in commercial construction as a Safety coordinator/shop manager, and have been for the last 10 years.

And it will be tough for you to be patient with them, yet you kneed to be  firm by adhering to the lease agreement.  

Its always great to hear how other investors have had to be patient and grow from mistakes.

Thanks again rene you have been a big help i will just have my partner who is also my girlfriend ask one of her patients he is a real estate lawer.  

There are a lot of great people here and a ton of free knowledge.If you're focused on the right business-building activities, action-oriented and patient/persistent, you'll do very well. :)
