I achieved financial freedom through real estate - Ask me your burning questions :)

[Salvatore Lentini]

I started 9 years ago with an art degree, no savings and no real estate experience.  I had just moved my family into our fixer upper dream home and that same day, lost my job.  With my back against the wall, I made the leap into real estate.  I started with wholesaling, then fix & flips and then started keeping some and now I'm closing in on 200 rentals!  I started with a $60K townhouse rehab and now I'm buying $5M commercial properties.

I have 47,000 followers here on BP and I'm here to pay it forward.  What's holding you back from getting started with real estate investing?  What's one big question you have?  Don't feel bad.  I spent YEARS in Analysis Paralysis before getting my 1st investment property.

Thank you for sharing your journey. I'm new to real estate investing and currently saving some money for my down payment. I probably wont be ready until two years from now. I guess my question for me is how do you find the best market when trying to invest out of state as I currently live in Orange County California and theres not much inventory for 2-4 units to have cash flow.
