The Power of Patience
Just a quick tip for all the newcomers. It takes time to buy real estate. Some people share success stories within a few months of starting. I don't think this is a good barometer.
Plan for a year before you find the first opportunity. Hopefully you find one sooner but it will frame your expectations the right way to avoid getting discouraged in month 6 especially in a hot investment market like today.
Real estate is a long-term wealth game and it pays to be patient. Looking forward to hearing your success stories in the future.
