Hello, Bigger Pockets Community!
For the past year, my business partner and I have diligently met weekly, exploring our options in real estate investment. Through extensive reading, planning, strategizing, and expanding our network, we've laid a foundation for our venture. Now, feeling prepared and informed, we're ready to take a decisive step toward acquiring a duplex property by this summer, to begin building our rental portfolio.
We're particularly drawn to the Pinellas-Hillsborough County areas, our childhood home, motivated by its long-term growth potential and our deep local knowledge. However, we're aware that success in real estate requires knowledge, strategy, and experience.
We're reaching out to seasoned investors who have navigated these waters and come out successful. Your insights, advice, and experiences are invaluable and we'd be grateful for any guidance you can offer.
Specifically, we're interested in:
- Understanding local market dynamics in Pinellas and Hillsborough counties.
- Strategies for evaluating duplex properties for their investment potential.
- Effective property management strategies.
- Fostering positive tenant relations.
- Avoiding common pitfalls and mistakes of investing in this area.
- Engaging in potential business deals.
- Networking opportunities.
We invite your insights and hope to ignite discussions that could lead to mutual growth and potential collaborations. We would love to connect and hear from other investors in this area.
Best,
Cody & Abtahee
