With 100 people a day moving to Nashville, there's plenty of opportunity! 

Doing this has saved over $40k that would have gone straight to interest.Side note: we kept 10k as buffer for emergency funds for both us and our current rentals.

@Paul DeSilva Sounds like a good opportunity

Don't wait or give a third chance- put your best people on your biggest opportunities.5.

As long as closing costs are being ignored in every deal you analyze, then it provides a consistent view across opportunities and you don't introduce the variable costs of who you use to close and what points you purchase.

I could be wrong, but I believe that if I just stick to what I can do and continue putting in my effort to connect with others with offers to help them (for free), help those even newer than I am to this website, be open to opportunities that come my way without expectations of their size, then I will eventually  succeed.I think that the one determining factor in me that makes me sure I will succeed in the end is my drive to keep at this until I have achieved success, and I plan to never give up as long as I am alive.

I am also looking in the Gainesville/Ocala area for investment opportunities.

*Note: this post is intended for investors who actively DO NOT automatically file a 1040 every year, unless they've incurred a tax liability.I'm wondering what difficulties investors who understand (have read the pertinent details of the tax code) have faced when engaging in investment opportunities that normally require an investor to furnish tax returns, and what solutions have they come up with.From my experience in banking, I understand that institutional lenders normally require a borrower to furnish yearly personal financial statements and tax returns.

This could potentially be an opportunity.

This immediately weeded out many of the bigger cities and left me with emerging markets at higher cap rates.From there I started looking for low property tax rates,favorable Landlord Tenant Laws, etc.In my opinion there are lots of cities in FL that are set up well to appreciate and cash flow.
