Looking for a new strategy

Hi Everyone,

I hope you're all doing well. I'm reaching out to this forum in the hopes of gathering some innovative strategies for real estate investment, given my current circumstances.

Here's a bit about my situation: I've been experiencing unexplained pain in my hands, which has unfortunately made it impossible for me to continue working. As a result, I'm finding it incredibly challenging to establish credit or secure traditional sources of income.

Currently, my kids and I are living with my parents in Sigourney, having moved there last June. While I'm actively exploring various avenues to improve our financial situation, I keep running into dead ends. However, I'm determined to find a way forward.

I'm particularly interested in real estate investment opportunities, but without access to credit, I'm at a bit of a loss. I'm eager to hear about any unconventional methods or creative approaches that could enable me to invest in real estate despite my limitations.

Additionally, I'm working on expanding my skill set by taking online courses in game development and gaining experience in website design and app development. While these efforts hold promise for the future, I'm seeking practical strategies for navigating my current challenges.

I'd greatly appreciate any insights, advice, or resources that you could share with me. Your expertise and ideas could make a world of difference in helping me achieve my financial goals despite the obstacles I'm facing.

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts!

Phil

It may be worth looking into getting some sort of partner that has greater access to credit or loan ability. Finding a co-signer would help you qualify if they’re an ideal candidate. Have you expressed your interest in real estate to anyone in your personal circle? Lots of areas have investor meetups that may be worth looking into to help you get started as well
