@Michael Dumler and @Dave Skow I just bought the house last year 2021 of January. Then I refinance it to take the co-signer out. Now, I am planning on renting it and hopefully get some money out to buy my next property. 

Hey guys, just wondering…

Is it possible to refinance your house for the second time? I refinanced my house back in June 2021 and I thought about selling it but after the rehab and appreciation value of the house, can I still do a second refinance?

@Becky Elder i haven’t done the numbers nor my research but will definitely take a look at it and see what are my best options.

@Beryl Ayewah thank you for the look out. I also got Texas in my mind as well. 

I saw the message. What is the best way  to contact you in case I have a questions

Ignore the “b” 🤦🏻‍♂️

Surrounding yourself with people who are trying to build their real estate portfolio & people who have experience in the field is always the best way to go! Connecting with those who have properties and who can shed light on their experiences will help motivate and guide you in the right direction. 

I agree with intending to live in the space for some time- maybe fix it up and then rent it out- so you can lock in that lower rate is definitely the way to go.

If you have any questions feel free to reach out :) 

 @Remington Blackburn I do own a property now but wanting to sell it and use the profit to start investing. I just don’t know where to start and focus on the area of which I want to buy my properties. Virginia Beach is pretty competitive. It would be very helpful to get some inputs from you since you are in the area and have some experience already. I do have a full time job as well so, idk how will that play out yet b

Quote from @Becky Elder:

I think the best way to get started is to buy a home as your primary residence with the intention to rent it out in the future.  Or if you can find a multi-family property that's even better.  Rates and downpayment is so much lower when it's your primary opposed to starting out with buying an investment property.  Listen to BP podcasts and you can learn so much! 

@Becky Elder I just bought my first house last year and I am planning on selling it. I would like to keep the house but unfortunately, due to renovation cost, I cannot afford it. My question is should I just sell my house now and start over or keep it and save up for the next property 

Hi there, I’m new to real estate world and I do have a full time and would to try real estate as a part time and see how things goes. Im kind of nervous to make this move, I’ve been watching lots of videos to have a better understanding of this field. I just need guidance to show me the right path.
