Purchasing a property

[Timothy Davis]

Hello Everyone, 

I have been studying multifamily investing since covid ended my career with Special Olympics. I miss the athletes I have worked with over the years. Needing a new career for my family it's time for me to go after what I have been wanting to do for a long time.  My goal is to own small apartments.  I have excellent credit and resources but don't know how to start. Any information to help me get started like funding etc. will be a great help. Need a mentor will help tremendously.  My family and I Thank you in advance.

I was in a similar boat as I was a college coach and lost job right before covid. I think you have some good translatable skills if you take what you used helping others in coaching. Real Estate investing is a people business just like coaching. Listening, helping others achieve their goals, putting yourself out there, etc are all very important. I would start by finding an investor friendly agent on Biggerpockets and set up a meeting with them and let them know your goals. From there I would tell everyone you know that you are interested in buying real estate, driving for dollars and contacting owners is also a great way to start networking and see who wants to sell.
