Hello BP fam I feel completely lost I've been reading books, listening to podcasts and even went driving for dollarsI thought wholesaling would be the route for me, but now I'm really unsure. I know I would like to find deals and fix up homes ( guess that's called the BRRRR method....still learning the lingo lol) I have wonderful credit high 700, but not a lot of money on hand. I've been reading How to Invest in Real Estate: The Ultimate Beginner's Guide to Getting Started & Rich Dad Poor Dad and after reading that I immediately created an FSP. After creating my FSP I was immediatley upset with my figures. I used my VA loan to purchase our first home in 2017, my husband and I are planning to relocate to MD and turn our home into a rental property. I do not want to use my VA loan again until I purchase my forever home. I would like really like to invest in some properties in TN,TX, and MD. What should I do I kind of feel as if I'm all over the place. I would really like to get one property under my belt, but don't want to rush and something go wrong. All suggestions are welcome

My and husband currently reside in Killeen,TX we purchased our home 05/2017. I recently received a job offer in Frederick,MD and would like to turn our home here in TX to a rental property. I used my VA loan to purchase our home. We will also like to purchase a duplex in Frederick,MD or near Frederick. We're going to live in one of the unit for 1yr and then rent out both units. Relocating to MD in September. Any suggestions on how to get started?

@Juan M. I also live in Killeen and I'm new to REI and looking to invest in SFH/Multi-Family properties. I've been looking up properties and speaking to realtors, but honestly I'm very lost. Could you provide me with any steps to get started?

@Patricia Steiner thank you so much. To answer your question no I do not have an LLC. In a YouTube video an investor said in the contract next to my name it should read and or assign. I'm still learning, I feel so lost. Sorry if I'm not explaining it right

@Nick Rutkowski I want to wholesale it. I’ve been watching YouTube and reading articles. One investor said next to my name in the contract it should read and or assign

Good morning everyone I was asked by a buyer if I could find a 4plex and he listed all his criteria. I met with a realtor yesterday who has 4plex available and it met the buyer criteria. Now what should I do? Should I tell the realtor I’m interested and tell the buyer I’ve found a 4plex as requested ?
