Excited to start this new chapter in life!
Hello everyone, my name is Brennan Guiles. Currently a firefighter and looking to start my journey towards financial freedom!
Been listening to a lot of podcasts and youtube videos ! Now diving into the deep world of BP forums and going to check out Real Estate Rookie, 90 days to your first investment book by Ashley Kehr.
My goal is to close on a deal before the end of the year. My Finances are in line with where i want them to be. Right now I'm practicing analyzing deals and gather more knowledge and tips into buying a first investment property process.
Any tips from others that have already been down this journey?
Thanks for your time !

Hello Brennan, glad to see you're getting things started!
Couple tips that I think will help you tremendously:
1. Identify your target area(s) and criteria then compile a list of properties of interest
2. Connect with a local investor-friendly agent (they can help you with step 1!) and build the rest of your team i.e. lender, attorney/title, home inspector, contractor, property management, etc.
3. Get pre-approved to find out your buying-power
4. Continue educating yourself via BP, books, podcasts, etc. - be mindful that a lot of the information online will NOT be specific to you, your market, your investment strategy, your goals... Your team should be able to help you relate what you're learning to the current market
Best of luck to you on your journey!
