Hi there bigger pockets!!! My name is Anna Ayala and I'm a resident of the great state of Texas!! I am super excited to embark on my adventure into real estate investing! So here is the deal I have two little boys, and one big boy aka my husband;) and have some time on my hands. Hard work doesn't scare me and working under pressure thrills and drives me!

Now I have two properties that I'm interested in for investment, one as a rental and one as a flip. I have a great mentor that's been in the business for over thirty years but she's exclusively rental properties.

I have about 10k of my personal money any advice about securing more capital for my ventures? Should I start with rentals or flipping? what would you do if you were going to buy your first property rental or flip?

Let me know! I need some advice :)

Anna
