In case you didn\\u2019t know this, I am a man. And as a man, I find it difficult - if not impossible - to see and experience life from a woman\\u2019s point of view. According to my beautiful and loving wife, one of the smartest things about me is I realize I don\\u2019t understand women at all. But there is a need for women to understand real estate, real estate investing, and financial literacy. But what can I - as a clueless man - do to make a difference? I can have people like today\\u2019s guest Kat Timpson on my show. Plus I\\u2019ve got updates on interest rates, 3-D printed homes, a couple of top 25 lists and a top ten list, and more questions from you than I\\u2019ll have time for today I\\u2019m sure.\\xa0

Kathryn is President of the North Central Jersey Women\\u2019s Council of Realtors and is committed to helping women become financially literate and invest in real estate. She\\u2019s joining us in a few minutes to talk about her activities and plans.\\xa0

Questions from Listeners:

  • Sandra, Kansas City, MO, \\u201cHow do you get in and see all the properties around the country you and your investors are buying?\\u201d
  • Allison, Milwaukee, WI, \\u201cI have a full-time job, but I\\u2019m so ready to get started in this business. My plan is to flip a house, then use some of the profits as a down-payment on a rental. I have about 10 hours a week I can spend. What is a realistic goal for me to reach by the end of 2022 ?
  • Eduardo, Houston, TX \\u201cI\\u2019m a short drive from the beach and a short drive from some fairly inexpensive rental properties. I don\\u2019t have enough money to do both. If you were in my shoes what would your preference be? I\\u2019ve run the numbers and the beach properties could be a little bit more lucrative.\\u201d
  • Cindy, Chattanooga, TN \\u201cHow do you decide whether a town is too small to flip a house?\\u201d
  • Barry, Macon, GA \\u201cWe have some areas here in downtown Macon that really need revitalizing. I believe I can help with that by fixing up some of the houses. We could make a positive impact, but my contractor doesn\\u2019t want to work down there. Any suggestions?\\u201d
  • Altomar, Boulder, CO, \\u201cPrices are crazy here anywhere near the campus. What would you suggest to people with a bit of money but not enough to do a 600k loan?\\u201d\\xa0
  • Lamar, Atlanta, GA \\u201cThe house across the street from my current project is vacant and the owners stay just about a 3 minute drive from where I live. I\\u2019m pretty sure they inherited it. I thought about knocking on their door the other day, but I don\\u2019t know what I would say. How would you try to buy it?\\u201d
