New investor from OH

[Grace Strahl]

Hi everyone!

I am looking for general advice and resources on how to get started.  A lot of the resources I find are for people with no money to get started.  My situation is a little different.  My husband and I have about $100k to get started.  Our long term goal is to have enough passive income to quit our jobs, in say 10 years.

I am looking for a resource that will help me build a solid plan so that I can see a clear path to our future.  We have good credit.  Should we mortgage our first home and pay for rehab out of pocket and then refinance and do it again?  Pay cash all the way?  My fear is that we'll screw up in the beginning and lose what I see as a shot to retire early.  Any advice is welcome.  

Thank you for reading my post!
