Hi Karen, my financial situation is that I am a recent college graduate. I want to save up the money for my next few investments over the next few months. I do not have an experience with real estate up until this point and I have been reading the beginner's guide everyday.
I'm looking to live in a cheap condo in my price range and also buy a duplex to rent out to tenants.
Right now, I would feel more comfortable being closer to the properties I want to invest in. I will keep trying to look into the San Diego market. The move is also a career move.
Obviously, TN is cheaper than CA but I am finding a few good deals every now and then in the 200k-300k. I plan to live in San Diego, however, I think investing outside of it would be a better idea.
I have been doing research, and yes, I am understanding the different areas in and around the city, looking at ammenities, schools, crime, etc.
I think the strategy I would like right now is to buy and hold for my own property until it is paid off and the same for the rental property. For now at least. I am just beginning to collect units.
Also, i'll take a look into the keyword function.
