@Jim Kalish thanks for your reply! Charlotte seems to be a wild market. We have put in multiple offers at $15 - 20k over asking price which in hindsight, i am so happy that we didn't get the homes. it's so tough to justify buying a home thats worth $120k that is listed for $200k and selling for $220k+. I think once the foreclosure forbearance programs ends, there will be a lot more inventory to choose from especially ones where we can do a flip or a BRRR rather than buying something that is move in ready and marked up extremely high.

but yes, education and deal analyzing is something that we have been consistent with since we started last year. 

i see you are in Mathews so if you ever want to meet up and chat let me know!

@Lee Ripma Thanks for your response! yes, i agree that equity is what will make us wealthy. In my early stages (which i am still in) cash flow is what i was focusing on when analyzing deals but i have realized that equity is what will allow me to get to the next level and buy more properties. 

I have a question for you.. how do you gain equity in a market where homes are at an all time high? its hard to justify buying a property where you have to spend atleast $20k over asking price and then hoping that it'll appraise.

@Jason E. Smith wow. that was a great response, i appreciate it! Yes, i agree. Time is more valuable than money. Time is something that i value the most in almost all aspects of my life. Most of my time has been spent understanding how to analyze deals, my market and real estate as a whole. As i go through my journey, i will begin to understand economics (more than I did in college). I added the two books to my list and will read them as soon as i can! 

thanks again for your response, i hope we can meet someday!

If you could go back in time, to the start of your investment journey, what would you tell your younger self? Anything that you wish you would have known when you first got into real estate?

@Eugene Rabinovich thank you so much for sharing your journey so far! My husband and I are out of the Raleigh area here in NC. We're looking to invest in the Greensboro market. We're kind of running into the same issues as you guys with not wanting to rush into a bad deal just to get a deal. We've had other investment properties in the past and we currently have one in Dayton, OH right now. Great job on getting out there and putting in offers that work for you guys. It's super easy to get stuck in analysis paralysis and to over think every deal. Hopefully you guys can get an offer in that sticks and start the next phase of investing soon. It's all about the little steps! So keep it up! 

To decompress, my husband also likes to do Jiu Jitsu. Myself, I'm more of a runner. I like to just get out on the trails or run through the parks. It's just nice to get outside and enjoy some fresh air! If you're ever in the market to look in the Greensboro or Raleigh area, let me know and I can pass your info on to a few Realtors out this way to help you out. Have a great weekend!

 Thanks for responding! yes, i agree its easy to get stuck with all the information thats out there. I was actually considering looking into Winston and Greensboro. I was in Winston and i loved the vibes out there but i havent done any research on the market itself. When we decide to look into those markets i will definitely reach out!

also, do you know where your husband trains? I train at Lucas Lepri in Charlotte and we have an affiliated school in Raleigh.
