@Zach Mueller I’m happy to hear that. You’re exactly the investor I write these for. Keep at it!!! 

@Derek Hamilton Thank you so much! That means a lot to me. Wow $20 million. That's crazy! We work so hard at our jobs too and know once we do this full time that we will be very successful. Your wife as well! Keep us posted on your journey  :)

@Howard Hall I am happy to hear it motivated you! I hope your offer gets accepted!! It's nerve wracking waiting for a counter offer, that's for sure. Let us all know how it turns out tomorrow :)

@Bernard Rooney That's great! Congrats on doing flips! We want to do at least one this year. Hopefully we can make it happen. Where did you do your flips? I'm open to NY/NJ probably more as a flip versus a rental.

@Andre Fierro Thank you! It wasn't as easy as it sounded but also not hard! Anyone can do this as long as you invest the time and energy into it. That's all it is. I see you're in NY. We met a couple (now friends) in Queens about a year ago that was in your shoes and now they just got prequalified for their first investment property. They will be purchasing in NC in a couple of months. Maybe you guys are neighbors :) @GLENN SANTOS can tell you all about his journey!

@Chyniece Cox That's awesome!! Definitely don't be shy. I have learned that most people on BP are extremely helpful and there is no reason to be shy to ask any questions. What's the worst that can happen? They ignore you? Then you find someone else that will talk REI with you :)

@Cecil Valentine Thanks so much! I currently live in Brooklyn NY but will be moving to Jacksonville in 3 months. Yes all 5 of our properties are single family homes. We just haven't found the right multi family deal yet.

@Erik B. Thanks! We started with a family friend that was an agent in Jacksonville. She switched to doing new construction about a year later. My husband was looking for a commercial agent a few months before that and found one on LinkedIn. The agent he found was the owner of a brokerage in Jacksonville and referred his top property manager because I was looking for a new listing agent. When our agent switched and we needed a new one, I gave this PM a shot as he also did sales. He's been amazing and I recommend him to every investor that wants to acquire in Jacksonville! 

As for the requirements, that's a loaded question haha. It depends on what we are trying to do. For rentals sometimes we need something with very minimal work and other times we want something that requires more work. We have also acquired properties that we will be able to flip in the future. You can read about that and our returns here  :)  https://www.biggerpockets.com/...

@Khoa Dao Aww thank you!! I’m sure you can and you WILL!! :) 

@Scott Rihm Thanks for your comment! Agreed on the power of networking! Very interesting that you broker self storage. Never thought of doing that. There are definitely a lot of opportunities in REI.
