Just thought I would share something interesting. 

After getting everything organized and starting my journey I realized I had already started building my team and didn't even know!

1. I have been working with a real estate team to find my house. The owner became good friends with my family. After letting him know our interests, turns out he wants to coach us along.  
2. One of my friends has taken the leap and started his general contracting business full time. We have discussed him being my guy for repairs and maintenance.
3. My older daughter currently works as a property manager for a company. When we are ready, she has agreed to support us on the management side. 
 

Just wanted to toss out an update. 

1. I have been reading through (per suggestion) the book "Think and Grow Rich". Really changing my mindset. 

2. Listening to a ton of podcasts. "One Rental At A Time" has been helpful.

Thanks to everyone who responded. I truly appreciate your support.

 I heave heard of Napoleon Hill. I am picking up a copy of Think and Grow Ritch. Looks very impressive. Thank you for the recommendation.

 Thanks man. I 100% agree, we are ditching the consumer mentality and focusing on what is truly important. 

Dave,
Actually we have just purchased a home. We got a good deal on a fixer upper, and were able to get FHA with the seller paying half the closing costs. We closed over the Thanksgiving holiday. So we are not in a bad spot for starting out. Being how we just bought a home we are not in the position to do a home hack. Thanks for the advise.

I sincerely appreciate everyone's advice. Glad to have started the journey. Impressive to see a community working together like this. 

Thanks so much!

Nathan, I really appreciate the advice and information. This is great stuff!!!!

Thank you very much for you advice. I am in contact with a couple agents I worked with in buying my home. I was not aware that they own multiple homes as well. Should be able to grab some good advice. 

My plan is to learn (which is free) while we get our house in order. Hopefully the timing will all come together.

Hello all. My family and I have had enough of getting ahead just to get knocked back down. We are ready to start seeking a 2nd string of income that can help us weather the bad luck. 
Both of us have good jobs and things are looking up. 

Looking to see from experienced people: If you were in my situation, where would you start?

Thanks,

JD

Great. Thank you very much.
