I’m trying to decide where to start
Hello! I haven’t been active here and I have it on my to-do’s to be more active. My post today is trying to find out where to get started. My goal in real estate investments is to build a portfolio of rentals. I would love to start with a multi family like a duplex, triplex or more but I’m finding I need 20% down. This is deterring as I’m just getting my credit cleaned up and starting to get some savings built. I wonder if I should start with a fixer upper home to live in and rehab then flip and use the equity to jump into multi family homes. I have a goal of at least ten doors in ten years. Any advice is greatly appreciated! Thank you!
