Hi everyone, I am looking around and speaking with RE agents and wholesalers trying to find a good deal that will cashflow for me. Does anyone have any advice on how to calculate how much a rehab will cost? This is super important for my calculations because the less I can spend on rehab the more money I can make in a deal.

Thank You guys!

I am a young investor and have been doing my own research on the topic and even got a job at a private lending firm so that I can learn even more, but I feel like I am ready to actually jump in and get in the game. I have a little more $20,000 in liquid assets and I live in California, so I have decided to go out of state. What I really need help with is choosing a strategy. Most of my research has been geared toward the BRRRR method. Does anyone have any tips or pointers that could be useful for me. I am always open to learn more especially from people that have already done what I am attempting. Thank You!

@Joe Splitrock Thank You for responding! It seems like you have a lot of experience in real estate investing, so my question is have you ever done a wholesale before and if so what would you say are the basics of it?

I’m either trying get some quick profits off small eel estate investments to work my way up which of the 2 would be a better strategy. If you guys have any other suggestions I open to learning and just want some more information, thank you!

I live in Lake Forest, CA and wish to stay local with a house hack any tips on how or where to look to find good deals on a duplex or triplex?

I am just starting out and looking to talk with other people and gain some other peoples perspectives. Ive been listening to podcasts and reading books, but a mentor of some kind or someone I could come to with specific questions would really benefit me. Is there any meeting I could go to in my area that anyone knows of?

I am 21 years old and still living at home in South OC, CA. I would really like to try to do a house hack, get a rental property to get some positive cash flow or do a live in rehab. One of my biggest obstacles is finding the right market and using as little of my reserves to get a property. What kind of places should I be looking at and what kind of loans should I be looking at as well?
