Obstacles in the way of obtaining my first investment

Jarrel Smith

Here's my story. I am in the process of obtaining my first investment. It's a duplex worth 180,000$ that's already been renovated. The duplex is "tenant ready". So after I figure out that this is the house I'm getting, I get to the loan process. Denied... I had a feeling that this was going to happen. Now on to the "obstacles" that are standing in my way -I'm broke "Most 24 year olds are" -I have bad credit "500s for all three scores" -Bad statement involving a renters office on my credit Working on improving my credit as we speak but if there is another way to go about this as well, let me know. Thanks for taking the time to read this
