Post: How do you decompress?

Hey everyone,

My post is a little off topic from real estate but i think it's important to talk about but before I begin, I'd like to give you some background of what I am going through. I'm a new investor with zero properties and MAN! its been a wild ride so far and I haven't even scratched the surface. I live in Charlotte, NC and our market is extremely competitive. People are buying homes for way over asking price, site unseen which makes it tough for someone in my position to get started. Now, that doesn't mean that I will give up it means that I will continue to learn and keep pushing forward. My wife and I started our real estate journey less than 1 year ago and we are super eager to get started BUT we are not in a rush to buy a bad deal. We have put in multiple offers, ran the numbers on a TON of properties and it's insane how a house that was worth $120k 1 year ago is now listed for $200k and is SELLING for $225k+. With the foreclosure forbearance hopefully coming to an end soon, that will bring in a lot more inventory in the future which may make it easier for us but I think our goal is to focus on building capital. Definitely stressful but honestly, I love it and I can't stop thinking about real estate and where we will be in 15 years...


So with that being said, How do you decompress?


I decompress by training Jiu Jitsu and photography. These two things allow me to stop thinking about the stresses of work, real estate and every day life. To me there's nothing better than training and getting choked out then shooting and editing beautiful photos of extremely unpractical cars.

Feel free to tell us how you deal with stress and how your real estate journey has been so far.

thanks for reading!


Best,

Good luck!

Thanks! I plan on diving deep into Youtube, Podcasts and all that stuff!

Hey everyone, 

My wife and I are trying to get into real estate but we don't have a lot money. We were planning on obtaining a conventional loan and were going to put down 3 - 5%, live in the unit for 1 - 2 years then rent it out but we were unable to find a solid property. I am located in Charlotte, NC and my market is HOT!! We put in multiple offers way over asking price but we keep getting outbid. We decided to wait and figure out a new strategy. in the mean time, we are going to keep reading, listening to podcasts and try to gain more information which is why i am looking at wholesaling. 

I am interested in wholesaling but i have zero experience. I know its not easy and there is a lot of work and time that is associated with it but i am ready to learn. over the next week, my goal is to fully understand the wholesaling process and which market(s) i should be focusing on. I don't think Charlotte will be a focus of mine so i will be looking into the surrounding areas such as Rock Hill, Columbia, Kannapolis, Salisbury, etc. I know this is a general forum but if you are familiar with these areas, feel free to reach out!

Anyways, my questions are.. 

1) What resources are good for understanding wholesaling?

2) the do's and dont's of wholesaling

3) is there a workflow chart around that i can look at?

I have a lot more questions but i'm sure they will be answered once i find some solid reading/listening material. 


thanks for your time! If you are an investor in or around Charlotte, North Carolina feel free to reach out!
