does this new construction price include land? i found a site just now that calculates the new build about 180k for standard home in my area  but it doesnt include land prices which are around 50k  for .25 acre?   

all good...we are trying to learn all we can...  ill start searching the site more...  thanks

wow sorry man.  as i said i am new.  and a new member.  just looking for direct answers and kind people...

what are the signs of a peaking market and how could you potentially research this further?

thanks very much

so being new to all of this and jumping into buying and holding...  were do you find the deals? :)  homepath.com seems to have some good stuff  are there other avenues?   

hey all,   my wife and i are beginning the search for a multi family unit in lancaster pa...  my question is how do you analyze the market for this.   ive been told that lancaster is now on the up cycle.  i would like to know how to know that?  

thanks thats a great tip!

so recently i was told with our financials we really shouldnt or couldnt start our investment path by flipping houses...   our vision (uneducated newbie vision) was to flip a few houses inorder to put 20% CASH down on our first rental for bigger cash flow and more units...

we only have 18k available  (leveraged)

we have the people for the work

we are finding some good properties on the market

I work 60hrs a week and have 2 small children

   the advisor is a good one and i believe is looking out for us...  suggesting a more conservative approach to buying the rental first and going into the second rental with equity...

any further insight?

thanks guys
