Thank you @Joe Scaparra I really appreciate that piece of advice that really is something to think about. I need to stop thinking too much into it and take that first step. Like you say if I’m not happy where I’m at I can move and rent out the 2nd unit so no harm no foul @Aaron K I’ve lived in bad neighborhoods before growing up so it’s not much that can discourage or scare me to not want to live in for a couple years being that it is a stepping stone for my financial freedom. A Good Thing is that the Tampa, Florida area is pretty much getting a full makeover so I’m pretty sure i can find a decent multi at a good price. I would have to just be a little more cautious if I was in a bad area.

@Aaron K. I’m thinking about going the route of starting with a multi family and staying in one of the units

@Max T. Thanks for that. I’m thinking about going the same route with doing a owner occupied multi family with a loan and go from there

I’m in the process of trying to get my first rental property (not sure if I want to do single or multi family) but Im having a little bit of cold feet... what was some of you all experience with your first rental property?

@Ned Carey thank you for that... crazy thing about it I had just ordered that book and still waiting to get it

I am new to RE and was was going to start with Whole Selling but After doing my research I would rather create passive income with rental properties. With me not having much money to go out and buy a property cash what would be some advice on different strategies to obtain my first property?

@Brandon L. The agent I spoke to is not looking to buy nor flip houses. She just help sellers sell there house

@Peter T. So pretty much your outlook on whole sellers is that we are scam artists? Anytime I speak to a seller I be as transparent as possible to let them know I may even assign the contract to another investor but he/she will still receive their asking price?

@Joel Owens oh wow I didn’t know all that. Seem like I would just be better off doing all the leg work on my own to find on & off market deals

@Nathan G. Thank you for that advice now that you put it that way it makes a lot of sense now
