My first property! A 3 bed 2 bath located in the growing city of Anna, TX. I'll be house-hacking by renting out 2 of the rooms and living in the master. Finishing up renovations now. Looking to then do it again a year from now!

@Daniel Schlittler

Congrats on your first deal! That's the biggest hurdle, most never start! Best of luck to you!

Hey everyone,

My name is Patty and I am brand new to the Bigger Pockets community and wanted to see if there is a real estate investing coach recommended in this space who specializes in helping someone get started in out of state real estate investing with the goal of maximizing cash flow.

A few more specifics about myself. I’m 28 and I am a full time Physical Therapist in the greater Portland, Oregon area. I’ve read “Rich Dad Poor Dad”, “Long Distance Real Estate Investing”, and am halfway through “Rental Property Investing” by Brandon Turner. I currently have ZERO investing experience. I know in Brandon’s book he’s not a huge fan of coaching as he believes the entry into real estate investing is accessible for everyone even without exceptional business skills. However, as someone who is a member of the very fearful that Robert Kiyosaki talks about in his book and someone who comes from a sports background I think I’d really value the help of a coach. I’m really excited to start learning from everyone on this platform.

@Patty Arville

I think the best place to start is your local area. Start attending local REI meetups and let your circle expand from there. I attended many many meetups before i got into my first BRRR property. I still go to learn and network. Happy to assist if you're ever looking in the Texas DFW area.

Best of luck!

I use Marshall Reddick out of Ca. for all my hard money when buying here in Texas. Ask for Levi! They're great to work with.

@Ryan Wilkerson I have one very similar that I'm refinancing here in Texas (almost exact numbers). I decided to do a 3 yr interest only at 7% with a 12-month lock-in. I have similar equity but don't want to sell it in this market. With the values here strong I'm just going to hold it for a bit. I'll only do interest only for a short period, but it will allow me to hold it and not have to put additional out of pocket money in. No penalty if I sell after one year. Tax breaks are great with a BRRRR as well. It gives me time to allow values to go back up and still hold my investment. If you just absolutely need to money than sell, but I hate losing an investment property.

Best Regards,
