After the third transaction you should be comfortable with the formula. After the time the third house is sold, you should be able to buy a fourth house and have extra money. You can accomplish all of this in less than a year.

Start by locating houses that need only cosmetic work. Avoid structural repairs. Do all of the painting yourself, inside and out. Update lighting fixtures, plumbing, and carpeting. Once renovations are complete the homes should sell quickly and for a profit.
