.- Currently a technology PM/BA at a bank, which has a RE BusinessMy Goals: 1) Transition into the RE Business from IT, 2) Invest in a house myself or for income, 2) Transition between the available teams to learn as much as possible for an exit opportunity of starting my own company- The Bank has almost all of the imaginable RE teams: Acquisitions, Research, Management, Development, etc...- Each team also has a focus: Retail, Commercial, Residential, Infrastructure, Marine, Office, etc...- I have been focusing on networking with the Acquisition and Research teams since I believe those will be the most visible roles to the investment process- I have read a few Broker/Agent/Investing books and reading RE Financing/Investing right now.

The properties in these areas as you can imagine are high priced making it tougher than other places to enter the market (depending on your financial resources).

The vent stack is past the other sink, so if the problem were a clogged vent, I imagine the issue would also be seen in one or both of the other fixtures (since those p-traps would be siphoned as well). 

As the front leaders have ingrained their knowledge into me, I have started to understand that the goals I imagine are realistic.

I have no idea why the original builder agreed to this easement but I imagine it was a tradeoff to allow building right up to the property line.

I would imagine you contracted out the renovations you have listed above; did you utilize a contractor or multiple to complete the work?

I am looking at purchasing my first investment property shortly, and I would like to have a great inspector on my side to keep an eye out for the things that need more work than I imagined.

So, the key I would imagine is finding the deals.So far all I have to go off of in my research is Zillow, Trulia etc. as I don't have access to the MLS (yet).I could always "drive for dollars" on the weekends.

I imagine once we find the first 3 or 4 it'll be easy to go way beyond the 25 total we're shooting for, but we just want a manageable, tangible goal.

I imagine there is some process similar to when they are developed.
