I lived with my dad rent free while I was in grad school until I was 24. I bought my first rental when I was 21 (in 2017), 5 years before i bought my primary residence with my wife.

I an extremely glad that I did so. Buying my primary first would have just delayed the start of my portfolio and the 6 years of increasing cashflow / appreciation have been really nice, which I wouldn’t have had if I bought my primary first.

I did get a little lucky, i think, because 1. I had a place to stay for free with my dad and 2. The rent growth and appreciation since 2017 has been nuts. Everyone who bought real estate in 2017 looks like a genius now, to be fair. But i think the general principles still apply.

Hi investors/agents! I'll be moving to Greenville, SC soon and looking for an investment property. The property prices here are a lot higher than I'm used to, I was wondering what your opinions are on the current market. Doesn't necessarily have to be Greenville, can be nearby like Greer/Simpsonville/etc. I typically look for Single family 3/2s to buy and hold/rent. If the rental market is still strong, what kind of price range seems to rent well for an SFH? Thank you!

Hi Everyone!

I'm a student in Clinton, SC (near Greenville) getting my doctorate in pharmacy. I still have three years til graduation, but I'm planning on investing in rental properties as soon as possible once I'm in the workforce. Building passive income is a huge interest of mine and I plan on treating it like a career, even though I'll likely have a day job. In the meantime, I'm trying to learn everything I can in order to hit the ground running and be as successful as possible.

Hoping to make some connections in or near SC with other investors, wholesalers, investor-friendly agents, et cetera. I'm particularly interested in buying and renting multifamily homes and apartment complexes with a property manager. Book recommendations or other good resources are welcome and appreciated!

Where are the best markets in SC?

What are the best ways to find connections?

Thanks all,

Chris
