@Account Closed good on you for having $1.5 million to deploy!!!

Thanks for posting your question-we live in a great country where there are so many options and markets to invest in 🤑🇺🇸

Hello @David Short, just listened to your BP podcast, and enjoyed listening to your many lessons learned and positive outlook!

I invest in the Indy market and wish you continued success!

@Daniel Peavey

Congratulations! I know what you mean about having an "E" mindset...

You are a skilled electrician, so in your retired life, maybe volunteer that skill at church, overseas, or Habitat for Humanity?

@Jessie Chang

Hello, I've had a great relationship with http://www.mymarathonproperty.com/

so far.

@Ben Dunning

Like you, I started with TK in Indy.

Was it the "best"? No, but great is the enemy of good. I flew out there, did the tours, shook hands.

Question is: compared to what? If this is a way for you to begin RE investing in a way that you are comfortable with, and you can sleep at night then only you know that. Let us know how it goes.

@Derrick Craig

Nice job!

I'm curious what Bay Area and LA investors experiences are with rent controls?

The current battle rages in Mountain View:

@Michael Swan

I'm reading Dave Lindahl's Multifamily Millions now because you recently recommended it!

Thanks for the inspiration!

@J. Martin

Congrats!!! Started from the bottom now we here!

Btw, can you recommend a RE investor friendly tax planner in the Bay Area?

@Jonathan Studdard

I'd pay down any high interest debt (credit cards, car, etc...) and like a few others posted, don't rush into any deals.

Maybe even go to a local RE meetup but don't advertise that you have an inheritance...

Read, podcasts, define goals and good luck!
