Hey BP Community,

Excited to be here! I’m a first time investor and eager to just connect and hear about how you got started.

Background: full time remote employee in the advertising industry. Working for DraftKings. I’m based in CA, but lived in Boston for many year! 

Goal: I’d like to buy my first rental income property in the next year. Open to anywhere in the United States. Have some markets in mind but would like to hear your thoughts. 

If you’re a female investor, let’s chat! 

Cheers, 

 Hi Kerlous,

Thank you so much for reaching out. During my initial market research Columbus,Ohio and Cincinnati,Ohio came up as potential markets to invest in. From your profile I see that you are based out of Columbus. Can you throw some light on the market there when it comes to cash flow and appreciation. I can setup a call if you want to discuss in detail. Thank you.

CANT WAIT TO MEET EVERYONE 

We're planning on selling our condo in Los Angeles and moving out of state to a cheaper area. Spoke with a broker friend and he suggested I leverage my VA rate of 2.375% by offering seller financing or rent to own. It seems like we could get a down payment for a new, cheaper property and some passive income while also saving the buyer money.

We’d get an airtight contract of course but am wondering of there are any pitfalls we’re not thinking through. Especially here in Los Angeles / California.

Thoughts?

Hi everyone,

I'm Harish and I'm based out of Seattle and I'm new to real estate investing and am particularly interested in exploring turnkey properties preferably multifamily, especially out-of-state opportunities. I’m looking for advice and insights from more experienced investors who have experience with turnkey providers or purchasing remotely. Specifically, I’d appreciate recommendations on how to identify trustworthy turnkey properties, vet providers, and avoid potential pitfalls.

Any tips, resources, or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you in advance for your help!

Hello Community, as you might see I'm not to new of member in Biggerpokets, but I continue learning everyday about investing in real state.

If you want to connect, I´m in southern Virginia around the Hampton Roads area send me a message and lets connect!!! It will be nice to connect with other Newbie investors in the area and exchange plans and ideas.

Is it worth taking a chance on a house that is good looking, at a nice location etc. But it doesnt have a garage? That too in midwest side where winters can be harsh? Or should we stay away from such properties?

Hi all. This is my first post on BP. I am a 35-year-old physician living out of state with plans to return home within 2 years. To that end I am raising capital to start BRRRR type investing in multifamily homes. Some friends and family are interested in buying in to the right deal, but I don't understand how they get paid (wrong specialty I guess). Is there a more advantageous way than others? For example, if a partner and I split the acquisition/rehab costs, do we each get a 50% stake in the equity of the property? Do we each also split 50% of an "owner draw" on rent profits? Based on what I have read and watched, it does not seem like you can quit your day job with 1 property, as most of your capital is tied up in it. I just want to make sure that I have my head on straight when thinking about how people get "paid" in this business. Thanks for reading this far if you did!

Hey my name is Keith I'm a truck driver who can save about 40k a year. I own a house free am clear that needs a lot of work (80k). I'm looking to start my real estate journey by house hacking a duplex and living there with my family while I renovate my primary residence. The ARV will be around 200,000. I prefer to tap into the equity using a HELOC I'm just unsure about the best way to grow and scale from there. Any recommendations?

I am not happy with my current PM company. High evictions rates and not collecting rent are getting old. Ive been interviewing other companies and was hoping others could share their experiences with good PM companies.
