Thinking About Investing

Do you ever wonder what it would be like to truly be living off of your rental income properties? I do! I am in my mid thirties now my goal is to own rental properties to pay for the lifestyle that I want my family to experience. The question is, HOW? How do you do it in a market like this? How do you pick the best investment? How do you acquire the cash needed for your first investment? As I talk to those who were just starting out, many years ago, I found out that most first time investors took on properties that they could afford to live it as a first project. Start small, and do the projects yourself. Sweat equity can go a long way in any market! 
Ever hear people talking about the 1% rule? An easy way to know your making a smart investment is to use the rule; If the rents are bringing in 750 month... you don't want to pay more than 75k for that particular property. If rents can bring 1500 a month... then you want to make sure that you are keeping the purchase price under $150,000. Easy math right?
One thing to consider is leveraging your money with a mortgage. Every mortgage comes with extra costs involved, but allowing someone else's money to work for you to make a profit can help you either spend a little more on your property, which could be better in a rising market for pocket neighborhoods that are desirable. Leveraging could also allow you a larger return on your initial investment. In a rising market... holding a property 3 years should make it worth the cost of your initial investment. In a slower market holding a couple more years could be beneficial.
