Everything is booked and excited to be going for my first time! Is everyone pretty much staying at the hotel the conference is at? 

Excited to connect with you. Last year, I stayed at an Airbnb. This year, I’m staying at the hotel where the conference is located.

Quote from @Erin Church:

When doing a little planning with our CPA, my family felt we needed around a dozen or so rentals to be comfortable. Our CPA insisted that we need at least 20 units to minimize risk. I'd love to hear how to safeguard against risk of non-paying tenants with the idea that pandemics/eviction moratoriums can happen.

 @Chad Carson Spoiler: do you REALLY only work two hours a week?!

Welcome to the BiggerPockets community, @Alec Esenther! With you having a background in insurance, that will be extremely helpful during your real estate journey! Have you started submitted offers yet for that single family property?


 Thank you Lawrence! And unfortunately not yet. There's been a few properties I thought had a lot of potential but currently I feel like I don't have enough saved
and I won't have the time to complete the renovations in a timely manner. I'm currently going into my 2nd year as an independent agent. I hit my quota my first year by working long days, but my book of business won't produce sufficient income until (at the earliest) the end of my 2nd year. I'd like to start investing in real estate to create another income source and to build equity, but I don't wish to plant that seed if it's not the right season. 


 You’re welcome, Alec! I totally understand! Along with my 9-5 job, I work a side gig as a food delivery driver for extra income! It’s great that you have a plan! I’m excited for you!
