Newbie question on Sourcing
Hi!
I’m pretty new to RE. I’ve been reading and saving for a few years. But I’m ready to jump in.
I libe near Philadelphia with a very Full-time job and two kids
I have a 200k line approved on my primary home ( it’s worth 450 easily and I own it outright at the moment)
I’ve been to a few REIA meetups and met some local wholesalers and brokers, etc.
My plan is to buy rentals localLY for cashflow and geT out of my 9-5 in 5 yEARS (ABOUT)
My question is this:
What do more experienced folks think is the best place to look generally to buy. I’ve met some agents that specialize in rental property here in Philly and I’ve met a ton of wholesalers, a few of whom seem legit.
I habe also researched sheriff sales - but think it will talke more tome than I have
What is the best path and what are the pluses and minuses?
Thanks for any advice.
