Hello Pauly-For me, I invest in a single area of my city and subscribing to a service like Realty-Trac is not worthwhile as the cost per lead can be expensive.

All China has to do is hit the 'SELL' button and our country is toast without a single shot being fired!

I have alot of investors that come forward looking to purchase singlely rather than in bulk.

It is certainly possible to achieve that net worth in a single lifetime and many have done it.

Since I am looking at options in both local areas I am familiar with and out of state options, I am trying to find a single source that will give average rents and vacancy percentages for a specific area.

Take that difference and put it down on a commercial building.I would try your hand at a couple of single family home deals before you start buying commercial buildings.

Case in point: (TX)Contractor/builder is hired to build a single family residence.

Hello all,I normally do single fam, so I wanted a quick hand with numbers on a deal I'm considering.Location and repairs aside, strictly by numbers, what do you guys make of this deal:Single house, 3 fam:- 2 bed/1 bath- 2 bed/1 bath- 2 bed/1 bath- 2 car garage- separate metersTotal rent is $2,500.Monthly taxes are $320What would be a good estimate for monthly expenses (50% rule??)

A long time respected Southern California real estate market expert I saw talk a couple weeks ago said rents will drop, especially in apts and condos, as we're about to be flooded with the biggest supply of single family homes for rent over the next few years that we've ever seen.

My single property right now has the 100/unit cash flow that mike is looking for but most of the multifamily buildings are just now coming down.
