So I’m quitting my oilfield job (12 yrs) so I can be home with the family more and I’m looking into trying to jump into real estate. I recently purchased my home in longscreek 78247 and was thinking of buying a couple houses here or in stone oak to buy and rent or would it be best to buy And flip a handful on the S/Ne/E side. Also those new 4 plexes and duplexes on the east side would those be good investment or not worth the headache as the area isn’t the best?

So i live in San Antonio in the 78247 area and I want to buy some rental properties to build passive income. I’m stuck on deciding on 2 single family homes or 1 duplex maybe 4 plex. Since I’m completely new to all of this would it be pointless to try and get my realtor license or just stick with being an investor? I’ve seen these investor groups and I don’t know what that means, like do multiple investors pitch in to buy property and split profit? I have some money to invest around 200k so I don’t know which would be best to get me the most bang for my buck. Would just buying 1-2 turnkey homes from roof stock in another state be good or stay close by? Thanks
