Hey there guys,

I recently have taken an interest in SF homes and have been looking around the area here in AZ and noticed A LOT of homes for sale with, what to me, looks like excellent pricing.

My question is this: For a house in the area from $33,000-$70,000, is $3,000 (at the moment but increasing) enough to invest with (assuming the owner allows for 5% down and all that)? I am buying books on how to get into the game of real estate investing but I have questions that a lot of books can't answer.

Also, say I do invest with $3,000 dollars, and then afterwards get a loan to cover the rest, and then rent the house out. This would mean I wouldn't make a profit for a long, long time right???:coffee:

I just don't understand how some people are saying they need 10,000 dollars but I heard some people have built a real estate empire on like 5k?

Sorry I sound like a dumbass! :smx6:
