Good luck on your venture and congratulations on being investment savvy at such a young age.

Congratulations Rob.For what it is worth I don't think I have ever bought an REO.

And congratulations for creating enviable ad copy!

Congratulations to all, no matter what party!

Don't rehab- unless you like being a glorified contractor, don't landlord, don't spend a lot of time doing anything except sitting there with your pile of dough analyzing deals others put in front of you-- and even better: get a person or a team to analyze them FOR you, and give you two or three great managed income property deals a year and invest that way.

Congratulations on starting young with some form of investment.

But I did notice she barely reviewed the piles of receipts I had assembled using NEAT but used the front sheets reports NEAT generates to summarize all the expenses.Mileage was a big deal, if it was specific to a property she allowed it but well documented mileage to do other business was in most cases denied but it wasn't worth arguing about.It was an exhausting three days but I leaned a lot.

I think it is great to hear when someone takes an opportunity and works to make even larger opportunities, so congratulations on that, that really says something about your character and ambition.
