Completely new to investing

Victor Beaton
Posted

Hello everyone, I came currently working in Iraqi but home is Florida. I am looking to start investing in the west coast of Florida, namely the Sarasota and Naples areas

I have always heard the American dream is to buy a house and start your family. Then that if you take care of your home then your home will take care of you. Then I found the bigger pockets 5 years ago and it changed my whole view on investing 

I never took the next step due to lack of time and money as well as not knowing enough. Now it’s time to take the next step and buy some long term rental properties

@Victor Beaton congratulations on finally being able to start your investor journey. Sarasota and Southwest Florida region is a great place to buy your first investment property because the land is cheap and the rents are high. All of my investors buy here because the population has been growing every year and will continue to go up. If you’re looking for a turnkey process on your first property investment, I would be happy to have a chat with you sometime.
