Would love everyone’s thought on these numbers. 

Bought 3 city lots 2 were empty and one we tore an abandoned house down. Cost $85,000

New construction of the 3 building is going to be $880,000 (lot price included)

Income is $1000 a unit totaling $9,000

With rates and other expenses right now our monthly expense is going to be around $8,000 

Please give us some feedback as we are getting a little un easy lol

Hello I’m Cody Blackburn out of Columbus,Indiana I own and run my own painting company and have recently starting acquiring rentals... I bought a lot downtown Columbus to build a SPEC and before I even finshed building the house, it was sold.... then our personal house sold so we used some cash we had and bought 2 duplex’s and are currently living in one unit and renting the others. Then I had another local investor call me and tell me they were starting to sell some properties. A week ago today we singed the PA on a 3 unit building form that investor.... I am really really enjoying real estate way more than my painting business, there is so much less stress. So with that being said is there anyone that’s been in my shoes and when did you just make the switch from running 2 different business and focus 100% on the rentals. Thanks in advance everyone!!

I've learned a lot about real estate investing through books and my grandfather, my grandfather is currently building a 12 unit apartment complex. I'm a senior in high school with a little over 10k sitting in my savings and I'd love to start investing at a young age but don't know where to start.
