Just looking for stories on how people funded there first deals when they just were getting started!

My plan is to buy and hold homes in my SW Florida area to make enough cash flow that I don’t have to rely on my W2 income to take care of my bills ( which is property almost everyone’s goal lol ) if there is anyone in my area or even just wants to share a good QUICK TIP I would love to hear your feedback, warnings, funny stories, mistakes, or just stop by and say hello!

The appraisal fee is a different story as that goes to a third party.

Their stories are very similar!

A short story for you, we completely screened and verified new tenants for an apartment, moved them in in August.

When I do get them on the phone, there is always a story for why they didn't call me back sooner.

There is a shed and a 2 story garage on the property which is being rented as well as 4 coin-operated laundry machines.Also, the seller has done a tremendous amount of work which means less repair/cap ex costs for me if I purchase it.The only way I could make this work is if I can get an FHA loan and house hack it.With these numbers I know it's not cash flowing much and it wouldn't be if I were to house hack.

I’ll fly to your 1 story 1,200 sq ft house and rip the siding off with a hammer and pry bar myself for 10k - save you a grand right there. 

I wanted to share my story.

Her story is unfortunate, but irrelevant.
