I would be looking at outlying areas with the largest potential for growth in the next 10 years.

Should I worry about a potential mechanical Lein on the property?

Hi, I wanted to know how you guys generally calculate the estimated repairs of a house that you are looking at, or if you browsing on classifieds and stumble across a house that has potential, how do you calculate the repairs? 

Im interested in specifically buy and hold properties with the potential to appreciate in value. 

It may be another avenue for you to look at, and potentially a bit more secure on your end.

The ONLY way your gonna find deals is to have a marketing budget and to actually market to potential sellers.

We want to invest in buy and hold properties, but we feel that pursuing this strategy will better benefit our long-term goal due to the potential cash flow and appreciation of a property (if we buy right).

Too many people pay $30k for a guru to tell them everything, but if you can "sacrifice" $10-$20k of potential profit, you will have real-world experience, relationships AND the ability to go to private money or bank financing with and actual track record.

The realtor says the seller has "potential" renters who will sign a 1 year lease at a price higher than what I am seeing  with the rent comps. 

I see huge potential in REI with a lot of hard work, both of which I’m very excited to dive into.I’m in my 33rd year of life and recently left the commercial maritime world in May to continue pursuing my career as a freelance Captain.My wife to be (in 11 days 3hrs and 4 minutes 37 seconds) and I are looking to start our portfolio with our first property together to be a multi-family in which we live in one of the units for 1-2 years as house hackers and then continue to build with BRRR.
