Louis to get the SFR we just bought rent ready.

My advice would to find some more extensive projects and get those rolling through the winter and have them ready to go in January/February/March. 

I am ready to get started right away and would value help.Your time and consideration are greatly appreciated.

We had to get the city to rush an eviction because the place was basically ready to catch fire at any time.

You just need to be patient, realistic with what you're looking at and ready to do a bit of rehab!

Not saying this is how we all will feel when we decide to do our first deal, but the idea of being so prepared that when it comes time for action, you're 100% ready, I think is a great takeaway.I'm of the opinion that you should start saving cash while reading everything you can on REI so that when you do have the capital, you're very clear on how you want to deploy it.

Wish they could own a home, but aren't ready yet for whatever reason (no down payment, debt to income ratio too high, etc.)Duplex: Not too much different than a single family home, as you're only sharing one wall, a fence, and a driveway.

Man am I ready!!

We are both wanting a slower, less chaotic pace of life and are finally ready to take steps towards real estate investing in the Boise area.

But yes in addition to househacking, if you still feel you are not ready.
