Quote from @Daniel Kienzler:

Hello,

I am from Springfield IL and own investment properties here. Springfield has 2 big hospitals and a School of Medicine and lots of political travelers so mid terms can do well. We manage our own properties right now so I can help with property management companies but also hit me up if you want to chat about an area.

I used to live in STL for a while too. (Tower Grove)

Hi, I’m new to real estate investing. I’m in the health care field and I used to work for the 2 hospitals in Springfield IL. I’m transitioning into the real estate investing field and would appreciate some advice on how to get into that field. Thank you!

Welcome to BP, Rufino!

Always happy to connect and help where I can. As others mentioned, building a team is crucial as you start out. What out of state markets are you looking into?

I’m still in the initial stage of the business, and presently trying to stay in Illinois. Hoping to look at Missouri, Michigan and Ohio state in the future.

Thank you for the reply. I'm looking at Section 8 or Multi family investing. I'm also thinking of using a property manager to help me with the day to day operation of the property. I'm really on the learning stage at the moment and I know that I have to find and build the right team to make things work. Initially if I can manage the property then I will do self-manage.

Hi, I'm very new to real estate investing and I hope to get connected to people who can help me start on this journey. I'm based in Illinois, but I'm also looking to try to invest out of state.
