Tips for new real estate investors
I am just starting my real estate journey and I am looking for some help to take that first step. I am currently living in a small rural area where the market is not the best. I have thought about investing out of state, but am looking for something small and close for my first property. My plan is to find some buy and hold properties to build my wealth, while accumulating some cash flow. I am currently trying to find a real estate investor near me, but unfortunately I have not found one yet. So, if anyone has any tips on my situation or would like to network with someone who has the time and hustle to help with your business.
