Coming to the US - Where should I start?
Hello BP Community,
I've been following the social media channels closely and decided to hop on here and say hello 👋🏻
I'm Marco, and I'm 29; I was born in Italy, traveled the world with my wife for the last four years, and eventually settled in the Canary Islands for 1.5 years.
I hold a PhD in Electrical Engineering and have worked in tech for the last five years, which eventually granted me an NIW green card.
We (my wife and I) hold a $1.2M+ portfolio of 4 self-managed short-term rental properties (across the Canaries and Italy) and a long-term property in Rome, Italy, that we rent out to students. Thanks to this community, we made the last two deals on 0% interest seller financing.
We're coming to the US over the next few months, and I don't know where to start the RE journey on the other side of the firewall 😅 We targeted LA as a candidate destination.
Do you guys suggest starting with wholesaling?
