Newbie soaking up knowledge

Hello. I am Annette and we currently live in Minnesota. We are working at entering the real estate investment opportunity in hopes of retiring from our current very labor intensive small business, building wealth for our current life and also generational wealth. At this time we are new and trying to gain any and all knowledge we can. We look forward to being part of this group. Thank you.

Hey @Annette Weber welcome! what business do you run today? Always interested to meet and hear how someone started small and grew. My wife and I live in a duplex in saint paul. We rent the other unit and have slowly done some improvements while we live there. We plan to do this "double-dipping" strategy a few more times before we find a single family we like. I like this strategy for a lot of reasons, but I think what you'll find quickly is there are many ways to build wealth in real estate. There are quite a few member of the community here in the Twin Cities that have found their own unique ways to add value. Rent by the room, househacking, short/medium term rentals and furnished rentals, flips or the BRRR strategy. You'll enjoy learning bout it, and I think you'll also find most of us would love to meet you and we love to share what we know. Reach out anytime.
