Fresh meat in Huntsville AL...

Hi, my names is Jim and I'm an investor...

Technically speaking, I've been investing since 2009 when I bought my first SFH and rented 2 of my rooms to my roommates I shared an apartment with. It's hard to really count that, as they are both more like brothers than tenants.

I'm a buy and hold investor for now, with the goal of having a $100k/yr income from investments in 15 yrs, pre-tax.

I'm now in the buying stage of my first rental property. Although I feel like I'm doing something wrong because I'm not able to find a property that follows the 2% rule or the $200/month +50% rule. My current deal is using HomePath for investors from Fannie Mae.

Can I get advise on the deal here or do I need to go to a different section?

I have really enjoyed all the content and podcasts over the last 3 weeks of reading this site, I guess now I need some mentorship.
