For a small house, I think you can get close to or at $50K if you remove some of the labor costs by DIY and ignore some things like permit costs, tap fees, other site improvements.

You'll need drawings in order to get a building permit.  

Also, looking for mentor and/or part-time work (15/hr month) working in RE (realty or property mgt.) office to gain some experience and make extra money/increase my down payment next year! 

We could use an extra set of eyes!

I know many people recommend holding each property in separate LLCs - which we may do in the future, but in the meantime, would obtaining a $1M umbrella policy cover liability on the vacant lots, as well as any extra liability on the rental home?

I am 23 year old Marine Veteran looking to earn some extra cash flow.

Well he sent me the bill and receipts and also stated that the bathroom faucet broke and drain line need to be replaced and billed me a extra $100 for parts and labor to repair that which we NEVER discussed or if there was even an issue.

I am not looking to make millions - would be nice - but even an extra $250 -$500 a month would have me sitting pretty.Best of luck to us all on this adventure!
