Welcome Juanita,

Get on the learn tab and you'll be busy for months! I still am. I'm making connections and learning more everyday. Welcome to BP and good luck.

I'm from Maryland too so let me know if you are down in Southern Maryland. We could meet up and talk RE!

James

Welcome and I'm jealous of your location! Best of luck to you!

Welcome David, awesome site with awesome like-minded people. Enjoy!

Granny (lol)

Thank you as well Hattie (awesome name btw). Exactly, around 200k for the property. 80k sub-2-loan, 1% financing from her (seller). I too think that we would be crazy not to jump. Looks like this is going to be my next step. 

Thank you so much for the input

James

 Thanks for the input Jeff. I agree that it would be very hard to convince them to leave. I do think the rent is significantly below market value. I'd have to do some more research but I think this house could rent for 2k

Awesome David,

Carpentry is an awesome background to have. I only wish I had a more experienced background in carpentry. I know plenty of people skilled in the craft so I guess that is the next best thing. 5K in 90 days for just waiting is still good money in my book!! I am working on the knowledge part everyday my friend.

Keep it up David

James(a hopeful future investor lol)

What James said above. I think it's vital to have a good realtor on your side. Check out the learn tab above^. The article will give you a breakdown of the "team members" you will most likely need to get started. While some of us don't need all of them right away, I'm sure that most will agree that some of them are a necessity. Unless, of course, you get your RE license and are familiar with the market you are looking to invest in(then you can be your own realtor!)

Read up Amanda, I'm a newbie too and I've been on this site religiously for 2 months and haven't began to even began to put a dent into the amount of content on this site!

I feel as if you've come to the best place!

What are your goals?

Good luck,

Keep in touch

James

Welcome Drew and Mark,

BP is an incredible community. Everyone is willing to help and I've learned so much in my short time here. Good luck on future investing!

James

Inspriing, correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems like once that first deal is in the books, people and their businesses take off!

Congrats

James
