I'm 35 I have a good job and great credit however I'm not generating wealth for my family and I've realized that real estate is a vehicle that can get me there.

I would love to make a buy and hold work as it's been in the family for generations but also open to a sale.

I purchased it for $96,000 and it generates $1700 a month in rent, with a 15 year mortgage (commercial loan because it is two separate buildings) that leaves about $1000 after mortgage, insurance, and taxes.

I'd guess the goal for most people on BP is to be able to quit their job, and live life on permanent vacation while having disposable income to travel, drive a Tesla, and otherwise generate social media posts to make people jealous.

The highest investor bid was $40 below that.Investors, make sure you are doing your own marketing to generate leads and not relying on the MLS, because those good deals are drying up fast.Anyone else seeing this in their markets?

I have been in the electrical industry for 17 years, and I am second generation for the General contracting company.

I'm 22 years old from the Canada and I was just wondering if you guys could help me out with finding additional ways to generate leads.

Seems like a lot to pay for lead generation and I'm curious why an agent would do that rather than prospect for their own clients.

My goal is to buy and hold in order to generate cashflow.  

If it's them or someone new that moves in down the road. it's hard to see the beauty beyond the trash.. it could be there.Nobody likes to show a occupied unit, or house,, but the facts are as long as it's showing income when you go to finance you can use those figures to show banker it's a money generating property,,
