Hello @Andrew M Amezquita, welcome come BiggerPockets on congratulations on doing the work!!!

Well done reaching out here and getting to exchange and know people. One of the first things you will get to know and understand is real estate is a people and relationship business.

There are so many opinions and resources out there, that is one of the biggest risks when you get stared. Just going down the information rabbit hole and ultimately end up with analysis paralysis.

In any case, we love to talk real estate and help others. We set aside a few hours a week just to give back and help people get started. Happy to provide any tools, tips, resources, information we have that you find useful.

Please do not hesitate to reach out, connect and DM me. happy to continue the conversation and help however we can.

Hi @Shlomi Mor congratulations on doing the work.

@Thomas O'Donnell has some good points, but it really all depends on what you want to do and what your goals are. We also live an expensive market and chose to invest long distance. Live where you want, invest where it makes sense, right? 😀

https://www.loopnet.com/ And https://www.crexi.com/ are two websites that have commercial property. That said, I would recommend looking for a commercial broker to work with instead of solely relying on the sites above. Most of the better deals will likely not be on those sites. Real Estate is a people and relationship business.

There a few more things to consider on these types of units and you run your numbers slightly differently. It also all depends on your level of comfort but if you did your homework, there are plenty of people who started with this type of property.

In any case, happy to help. If we can provide any value, do not hesitate to reach out and DM me. 

Cheers

Hi @Jagnoor Gill welcome to BiggerPockets and congratulations on doing the work!

This is a very exciting journey you are embarking on. I still remember our early days and the excitement!

What is attracting you to pre construction?

FWIW, we pretty much only do long distance investing. We also set aside a few hours a week just to give back to people getting started so I would be happy to connect and continue the conversation and share any and all tips, tricks, resources, tools, etc that we like and use. Please do not hesitate to reach out and DM me.

Always happy to help!

Hi @Dustin Payne welcome to BiggerPockets and congratulations on doing the work!

What’s great about the above is you have options!
It sounds like you have some experience and skills rehabbing properties. That is great because you would need it for a BRRRR. I would not consider BRRRR a beginner strategy and therefore would be more risky if your starting your real estate journey with that.

Sounds like your primary could turn into a cash flowing property. What would you do with the money if you sold the property. could you put it to use where it generates more than $400-$500/month?

In any case, this sounds like an interesting situation with options. We mostly do out-of-state buy and hold investing. Happy to help provide any context tools, tips, tricks, resources, recommendations.

Please do not hesitate to reach out and DM me, we can continue the conversation.

@Simon Pereira welcome and congratulations on doing the work.

Seeking out help here is such a smart move and a great step. I remember when we were getting started. But we didn’t know about biggerpockets, so you have a leg-up on us :-)

In any case, happy to share all the tools, tips, resources, info we have that could help you get started. We also personally use simple tricks to increase our income as well to help get that first down payment.

Hello @Kara Mosesso,,

Welcome to BiggerPockets and congratulations on doing the work. 

I am also local to the Bay Area and we specialize in out-of-state investing. We have a portfolio of properties in the Midwest. We love to talk real estate and set aside a few hours each week to help others get started. Love to share our tools, tips, tricks, network, resources, etc.

Happy to connect and share anything we have, please DM me. Though it may not right for you or what you are looking for.

Congratulations

Hey @Mohammed Nasser welcome to BP and congratulations on doing the work.

Also, Bay Area here, doing out-of-state investing. I have typically not found many events in the Bay Area on BP, however, if you go to meetup.com there are a few events in the area.

Happy to connect with local like-minded people!

@Cherry Montesa congratulations on doing the work and posting here to keep your momentum going. I'd be happy to chat about all things we did when we started to keep the momentum and motivation, please do not hesitate to DM me if you want to go into more detail, I think it will be hard to convey all the things in one single post here.

One things that I have learned to appreciate with real estate is: patience, long-game, daily discipline, hard work, and network. Like they all love to say, it is not a get rich quick scheme, it is a get rich for sure.

happy to share all the tools, tips, tricks, resources, info, etc so please reach out if interested!
