I don't know how much of that you can learn in a weekend with your buddy.Unless your buddy is willing to partner or mentor you through a fix & flip, I would suggest looking at a few SFRs and duplexes, maybe ones that are already rented or don't require too much rehab. 

I will end up putting about $20,000 into it before I'm done (about $42,500 total) - I've replaced the furnace, water heater, and windows aside from repainted, remodeled the bathroom (completing this weekend), replaced all light fixtures, and remodeling the kitchen, . 

My brother and I are flying to Jacksonville next weekend to do some field research.We are looking to purchase our first income generating rental property!

After reading Rich Dad Poor Dad, I kicked my financial education into gear, taking control of my personal cashflow management for the first time ever, and began to develop a much greater sense of financial purpose beyond 'pay rent / buy stuff'.Towards the end of 2011 I started my first commercial business, a catering company that targeted week or weekend long music festivals in Australia.

I just closed on a property in West Knox and will be out there to furnish it this weekend. 

I spend my days working as an Engineering Technician in NW Portland and my nights and weekends renovating my first real estate investment, a 1930 cottage. 

Did they have the open house last weekend?

If it snows on Monday- the weekend goes up $100+ a night- things like that make it really hard to trust automation.

The drive was  sketchy, but the deal was worth it.What deals you working this weekend?
