@Don Taylor, I'm jealous that you are in Raleigh! I love the area, and I feel like it has a lot of excellent opportunities for real estate because of the universities in the area, and it is the "Silicon Valley" of the East. I plan on starting locally in Jacksonville/Wilmington, NC but I hope to expand to Fayetteville and Raleigh at some point

 Definitely, check out Garner as well. Very underrated city imo

So all the work I have been doing now is education. I am currently overseas, but I am moving to NC shortly. After all the research and learning I have done, I would like to start with multi-family properties and work my way up to larger apartment complexes. I want to use the FHA 203k to fund my first deal with the hope that I can rehab a property and then refinance out of the FHA loan once I meet the requirements to do so. I want to use the BRRRR method for my general strategy. However, I am not afraid to adapt to what happens on the ground. If I find a great deal on a single family, I will either pursue it myself or use it as an opportunity to learn wholesaling.

 I'm doing exactly the same strategy as well for my first property. With the situation I'm in right now it just makes sense, getting the best of both. And it'll be a great learning experience so that when I decide to get another property I can explore other finance options based off what I went through with the first one. Keep in contact man!!

We are investing out of state with partners in large value add apartment buildings.  We currently own in Fort Worth, TX and Wake Forest, NC, as well as a local property in LA and a triplex in FL.  Our long term goal is to have most of our real estate investments be passive investments so we can focus our time and energy on fun activities and traveling.  

 I stay about 20 mins from Wake Forest, definitely a great area with potential.
