Hey Brian! Welcome to BP! I'm new here too and am loving it! I'm taking a little time to do some learning, but I'm ready to get busy building my portfolio. Maybe we can touch base sometime and compare notes! Take care!

Hey Joe! I'm Todd and I'm in Seattle. Welcome to BP! I'm new on here as well. I haven't made many posts because I too am in the learning phase! I do a lot of driving for my job so I've been taking advantage of BP's podcasts! Check them out because they are awesome! I look forward to keeping in touch. Take care and happy investing!

Thank you for your advice Christine!

Hey Rick! Even though it's a "metal building" and you're not worried about structural integrity, at some point you will probably have to deal with a black mold/toxic mold issue. That stuff will grow anywhere water has been sitting. Once it starts to grow, it spreads. After each flooding that has already occurred, if things haven't been dried out and addressed appropriately, there may be mold in the walls already.

Micheal... Thanks for the info on your experience! I couldn't help but think the same thing. Being new to investing, I just want to make sure I start off on the right foot.

Thanks for the tip Russelll! I'll look in to that.

Thanks!!

I have a question for all the investors out there that focus on acquiring rentals... Is the market for 3 bedroom rentals that much better than 2 bedroom rentals? I understand that the market in which I live directly affects this. The 1 and 2 bedroom homes I'm my area don't seem to sell as fast. I don't know how to find out how they rent though? Any suggestions? What's your preference? Do you as an investor stay away from certain size homes and if so why? Thank you in advance for your advice!

Hello everybody! My name is Todd and I'm 40 years old. I live in Seattle, Washington and I am new to real estate investment. I wish I could have started down this road a little earlier in life, but better late than never! Many blessings to you all!
