Starting my real estate journey with an apartment complex

Oscar Perez
Posted

Hi, my name is Oscar and I am working to start my real estate investment journey. I am a recently graduated physician and I am looking to create wealth through real estate. I have considered many options, however, in order for me to make sense the use of my time I want to get into commercial real estate.  I am also the type of "go big or go home" person. I'd like to know your experiences with the first apartment complex you guys have bought and what recommendations you have for me. Thank you so much!

@DuWayne Gregory welcome to BP! I had always had SFR and duplexes and I bought a 12 unit 6 years ago. I have been able to increase rents and tenant class. The building is in great shape and has made me a bundle. My wife and I are retired and real estate keeps us from ever having to work at Walmart. If you have decided on RE and land lording, I highly recommend an apartment investment.
