Oh awesome! Didn't know something like that existed ha! @Ana G.

@Brian Ortins It isn't on the MLS.. But I'm working with a friend who just earned his license..He offered a ride if the house is nearby where I am.. We are still in discussion about this. But that's awesome that you'd go the extra mile!

@Carson Sweezy That sounds like a great idea!

Thanks everyone, this is why I love Bigger Pockets, full of great ideas!

@Richard C. I would have to disagree. You're right I wouldn't show up to viewing(s) by bus or taxi (friend would look better, which I would bring a partner along anyway). I emphasized the 'S' because It would take one successful deal to acquire a car. That's like telling someone, "You can't get a job unless you have a car". I personally wouldn't belittle anyone's effort to achieving a short-term goal when there are many resources out there. 

PS. If there are others building billion-dollar companies from nothing, I'm sure I can get across town without owning my own car. I'm almost certain there are many successful Investors who've started without owning a vehicle. It is definitely possible. 

Though I know I'd need a car to do practically anything these days.. Where I live to get decent amount of money, I even need a car to work. I figured to go a different route to purchase a car ie: Real Estate. This day and age there are a lot of resources out there that will make it POSSIBLE to close a deal not having a car; brings it back to asking if there are any other options anyone could come up with.. Right now it looks like Real Estate is my vehicle to obtaining a vehicle (haha) which I will make happen either way. I do take the advice of having a job (well second job, as I am currently employed) that will provide me with extra income, but it is very possible to do a deal or two without a car and I'll just have to prove it. Thanks @Chaz Reid @Ned Carey @Aaron Thivierge and @Keith Belzner 

@Shadonna N. Yes, I agree! And no the property is in Hagerstown MD

@James Wise I'm currently looking for a second job (now that I have free time) but I don't want to limit myself because I don't have a car. I feel that I am too far into learning the business, I'm too motivated to stop now. 

Yes, I'm going to ask a friend (just wondering if JV would be beneficial as well).. I have my license but for a day it will accumulate to about $80 (done before). Seeking other options now but I live in an area where the market isn't well. So I tend to look in DC or Baltimore. But yes asking a friend will be ideal.

@Kathryn Marchetti Yes, I look at Google Street View for all properties, but definitely prefer to look at a property physically.

@Chaz Reid Thanks Chaz!

All Great Ideas! 

@Dewayne Conigan Thing with uber is it will be costly to ride an hour out and back.. But definitely great for quick errands..
