I'm Chad Lee from East Mesa, AZ and Ive been passionate about real estate investing for quite some time.

If you don't follow all their steps in the right time and manner, they deny any payouts.

I invest full time in Rochester NY--It is a very solid market--Very strong cash flow and upward appreciation. 

I'm a first-time investor interested in seeking cash flow and appreciation through rental properties.

If you got a HML to finance this one - I'd recommend keeping all of your receipts from the beginning so you don't have to go hunting for them, and risk them crinkled up in the back of your car when the time for your draw comes. 

Get a part-time job at McDonalds for $15/hour and earn $1,200 a month.

I've dabbled in the new construction space here in Chicago and there is A LOT that goes into it...I'd highly suggest spending some 1:1 time networking with some other investors like @Jennie Berger or @Prashanth Mahakali who are both Chicago developersYou make your money with the land purchase and then systems/processes/volume over time in the development game, but it's not easy and competition is high!

First home will be with the VA loan so I have to homestead it and then after the first year I am refinancing then turn around and do it again for the 2nd home, but I wont have to wait another year because I will have the rental history at that time.

If you are confident you can re-rent it within a certain time frame, you might offer to let her buy out of her lease.

The price is extremely low, but I needed to supplement it with other platforms at times.
