Hey everyone!

I just wanted to hear some stories about how some of you overcame your hardships and beat the odds.

Did you have a rough childhood? Did you overcome poverty? Lose a loved one?

I’m really eager to hear your rags to riches story and what ultimately got you into real estate and what pushed you towards success

Feel free to message me your story or reply below

Thank you all and happy holidays!

When working with seller financing would you work with an agent? And how does the agents commission get handled when you use seller financing?

Thank you for the advice!

Good evening everyone!

Does anyone know where I can purchase a list of multi family property owners in CA that owe nothing on their property? Is there such list?

Anything helps! Thank you all and happy holidays

@Daniel Ordonez

What area of Stockton are you in?

I agree a property manager would be a game changer

I initially wanted a MF but my FHA loan was paired with DPA funds and they restrict it to only SFR

How’s your triplex doing so far and have you done any work on it?

@Daniel Ordonez congrats on the Stockton purchase!!

I just recently closed on a SFR here in Stockton as well using an FHA loan with DPA so I basically put zero money down. Currently house hacking the property.

I’m in the same position as you, trying to figure out how I can scale with saving $2k a month.

I've been looking at Cleveland and I might BRRRR a property out there soon or I want to do what you did, and get a multi family in Stockton or Sacramento

@Ori Skloot

Thank you Ori for your reply! I found your website! Very awesome of you to start a non profit and then a green construction company. If you ever need concrete poured, or anything hauled then I’m your guy! I have a truck with tons of bed space.

Hello everyone!

My name is Allan Pilapil and It's been 2 months since I bought my first property using an FHA loan. Currently house hacking it and in the works of adding a 2bd/1ba ADU

Since then I’ve been continuing to read and study real estate but I’m more of a hands on learner and I ’ve been itching to get out In the field, check out some developments/properties, and connect with experienced investors

I’m seeking a mentorship/friendship with a seasoned investor with whom I can grow and create value

We can grab a coffee, lunch, or visit one of your properties and I can roll my sleeves up and get my hands dirty and assist in any way!

Advice, knowledge, and input is always welcome! Thank you

What’s up everyone!

It has been 2 months since I've closed in Stockton CA using an FHA loan - I'm currently house hacking it and getting 60% cash on cash return since I put very little money down

Thanks to bigger pockets and all the contributors I was able to learn a lot and make my first move!

I’ve been interested in real estate since I was 18 and finally collecting rents now at 24 yrs old

I am currently seeking mentorship, knowledge, and advice on what I should do next

I would love to connect with seasoned and new investors here in the Bay Area and learn what works best for you!

We can grab coffee or we can visit one of your properties and I’ll roll my sleeves up and assist in any way possible!

I’m eager to learn and connect and get my hands dirty!
