What would you do? Im the typical (or will be in July 2008) “New Investor” who is currently working in Iraq, but should be back in Arizona in July 2008 with about $150,000(give or take $10,000) in the bank. I also have my application for an AZ Real estate license in the mail. I have been reading this site and some different books(rehab, rental etc etc) and initially thought about buying some single family homes for rentals(or possible flips), but my thinking has changed and I am leaning towards some smaller apartment buildings(1-4 units) or maybe even a bit bigger. With the future foreclosures coming in about a year, I hope my cash will go MUCH farther than it would have 2 years ago.
A little about me. I own my own home and have a credit score over 720. I am going to do real estate when I get back to AZ, but could also go back to my old job at $60,000 a year.
So if you were new to the game(but not new to life, Im 37) what would YOU do with $150,000???
Thanks and I really enjoy this forum and have learned a lot!!! If my thinking is naive, do not be afraid to point that out(not that some of you would have a problem with that!!!LOL)
