When did you experience a rehab lifehack/revelation?

Hi my name is Jake. I live in the bay area of California but have lived in multiple areas of California. I currently have 1 property but am looking to meet fellow members from Kansas City,  Atlanta, Sacramento, or San Antontio region of Texas.  

My goal for 2021 is to close 3 properties, and I am a Jack of all trades in life. Nice to meet you all

I recommend that you owner occupy your first place. And continue to do so until you can no longer stand living next someone that you rent to. Your wealth will explode over time and you will be able to do so much with all of your real estate. 

one thing that is not in books much is that location does really matter. You can gain forced appreciation by buying in established area or in definitive path of progress. Hope that helps!
