Hello All!
I've been looking into a buy/hold strategy for years. I've read a few books, but I'm currently still saving up for a good down payment.
My first real question for this whole process is where to start going to look at property? I'd like some kind of multifamily dwelling. My fiance and I would live in one unit and rent out the others.
So where would I start looking to find good property? When I google places like this in Madison, WI I get some pages that come up that require a subscription to buy. Should I go to a real estate agent to help us find what we are looking for??
I'm looking to purchase this house by end of next year beginning of 2015, and I want to start looking to at least get a year or so under my belt of what my market has to offer.
So what would be some good practices to start turning into habits now so I know when to pounce on the right opportunity like MMM says?? Thanks!
