Welcome Congratulations on taking the leap.You’re taking the first step by educating yourself.
Next, you’ll want to consider the type of investing strategy you wish to use; buy and hold, fix n’ flip, wholesale, house hacking, and so on. Many investors utilize different strategies in different markets and different times in the market cycle, but it’s good to nail down one key skill at a time and get strong at it. Many choose wholesaling or flipping because they offer the investor a boots-on-the—ground education in finding and rehabbing great deals. this isn’t for everyone and is more of a job than investing. However, you can learn important skills and earn some investing capital along the way if done right.
You’ll also want to start building your “team” for whatever strategy you employ. Most start with an agent(s), general contractor, property manager, attorney, and others that have specialized skills you’ll need but don’t have the time to learn because you’ll be finding and closing on great deals.
Find your local meet-ups to network in your general area. If you find someone you’d like to earn from, they will be more inclined to help you out if you can find a way to add value to their business. Often this can come in the form of simple elbow grease.
