Good luck!!!

How old were your daughters when they got started? I’m pretty young so when I hear other young people being successful it motivates me a lot more 

Yes thank you! I’ll be reaching out thanks for extending the invitation to do so. Still super new to this and will need lots of connections.

My first duplex house hack. I did FHA and put 3.5% down. I close November 2018. I'll be renting out the upper unit while living in the lower with roommates covering 100% of PITI. Plan to live there for 1.5 years, force appreciation, then BRRRR it into a 4plex (stack method).

@Matthew Perry My personal/financial goals for 2019 are: to learn how to analyze deals faster. Start working toward acquiring my second househack or BRRRR 4-UNIT Force appreciation in my current duplex househack! pay down debt Network more! Read more financial/business/personal development books.

Thanks Terrell! Good idea.  

Hey guys = should invest in the protection plans offered on new appliances or forgo them? Insight is welcome. Also where can I get the best deal on appliances? 

Bummer, I missed this one. Whens the next one?

Hey! What are some digitaL ways of organizing important documents for properties? (Google drive etc). Any apps you recommend? Also, Should I create a separate email address strictly for property stuff?

Hey! So need some input on what would help make my offer I'm putting on a double, strong. Its listed for 114k. Three other offers on the table. My potential offer is 120k FHA. What else could I add to make me the most attractive buyer?

Hey! So I found a double going for 100k. The only issue is a huge foundation crack in the basement. Should I make an offer anyway and negotiate the seller fix that problem? or put in an offer far below asking, so that I have room to repair it? Or just forego the entire deal? Thoughts on the matter.
