Hi everyone, this is my first post on BP and let me say that the wealth of information contained on this site is astounding! A bit about myself, I have been a professional merchant mariner for 10 years and a commercial fisherman for the 10 years prior. I recently suffered an injury at work that will not allow me to return to my previous position. As a result of this, I have received a settlement and am looking to smartly invest in real estate. I’ve attended a few webinars about investing in multi family homes, and like the prospect of steady monthly income, but I am also able to provide financing myself though years of savings and the settlement result. What are some strategies that seasoned investors would advise me to pursue? I am looking at this as a full time career, and am willing to do much of the legwork myself when appropriate, in case anyone was wondering about my expected level of involvement. Thank you so much for all of the wonderful information on this site!
