Hey,

Im looking for some quality wholesalers in the south Florida market to broaden my pipeline. 

Thank you,

@Jerry W. That is awesome feedback and thank you for the encouragement. You have GREAT nuggets of information in here. Just out of curiosity and because I am new to the game, why do you like to have 50-60% of the rent to cover mortgage? YEEES! I always "stop in Thermop"! After spring ball I would always take a trip up there to sit in the hot springs. It does wonders after getting banged up! GO POKES!

@Mike Gorius Thank you for your reply and I appreciate your recommendations! I actually just downloaded and started to read a sample of the book you mentioned "out-of-state investing". I will absolutely buy it.

Thanks again!

@Nathan Gesner THANK YOU so much for that target feedback and resources! That is awesome! The biggest areas of focus for me based on your list is just acquiring knowledge and NOT getting stuck in that paralysis by analysis. I need to set those goals of target dates and just "jump-in" like you said. Honestly, thank you for taking the time to draft those starting points I truly appreciate it!

I see you are located in Cody Wyoming! I played football at UWYO in 2005 to 08. I loved it and the state is all about the Cowboys. Laramie fun BUT COLD in the winter and Cody, well that whole Yellowstone are is got to be one of my favorite places!

Thanks again

@Jevon Shaw Thank you for taking the time to reply and welcome me to the community!

@Austin Drew That would be great! Would you mind messaging me the details? Thank you very much for responding

@Kyle Spearin Thanks for the advice and encouragement. What were some of the "fears" or concerns you had when you were just starting out, if you don't mind me asking?

Hi Everyone,

My name is Jordan, I'm new to Bigger Pockets and real estate investing in general. Originally from Colorado and relocated to South Florida about 6 years ago. I am looking to start my portfolio but face many of the same road blocks as first time investors.

I've wanted to get into real-estate investing for some time but never knew how and it seemed like something that only the top 1% can do. However, I'm ready to jump into the deep end this time and am primarily interested in a mentorship/partnership to help me through my first deal (and hopefully many more). A possible opportunity arose in that my wife recently got a new job closer to the Miami area and she has been commuting from our current location in the in the palm beach area. Traffic is horrendous and we are looking at getting an apartment closer to her new role. We bought our home in Palm beach back in late 2019 and was a new construction. I do not want to sell it but was thinking about making that our first rental.

Any advice, recommendations, or introductions are welcome.

Jordan
