how to scale faster
hey guys I am new to real estate and I just got my first rental property this past year and have tenants and things are finally stable now. I was wondering how people managed to scale their businesses faster. I make a decent amount of money nearly from my W-2 (over 100k) but still not enough to easily buy another property this year especially if I have to put down 20%. I was debating if I should partner with a friend or family member who is willing to work on a property together. ill be sure to make sure things are done legally and fairly so no one get short sighted and things don't get messy. I was wondering how other people managed to start scaling their business faster. did you guys work with partners or do any deals? I am open to any past stories, recommendations or advice? my goal is to at least be able to buy one property a year.
