 Hey @Anthony Edward. So excited to hear that you wanted to get into the real estate investing. My biggest and really important tip I would say, find a mentor that match your goals! Having a limited amount of funds, dont let that slow or discourage you. Just an example, I purchased my first duplex rental about 9 months ago. I used the FHA loan with low down payment and living in one... "house hacking"! Honestly, it is the best way to get into investing. You'd have a chance to feel the process of managing a property while you are living in one (for free or almost free)

I'd love to connect with you. If you have any questions, feel free to message me!

That is so awesome that you interest and excited about real estate! My biggest advice (and everyone have said it too) is to find a mentor that match with whatever goal you have in mind. I'll give you an example, I just bought my first rental property last 9 months. I had limited amount of money also, however I didn't let that slow me down. I used the FHA loan with 3.5% for purchase my duplex (yes the PMI will be there but it allows me to have a low down payment, and now I have gained equity. I might refi soon). I am planning of doing the BRRRR method, you should read that book by David Green.

Best of luck for you! I would love to connect with you, if you need someone to bounce ideas and I'm all ears!

 I love that! Same here, I make sure that I have a time block for them and unplug!

I just want to post this out there!

To all of the real estate investors and realtors! How are you doing with this market? What are the things you are doing to not feel the burn out?

I would analyze the numbers with the properties that you are looking. Are you planning of doing a house hack or are they both going to be rentals? I can understand that the prices are overwhelming. If you ask me personally, I think it pays off. 8 months ago, I purchase my first duplex investment property and doing a house hack. 8 months later, the equity for this duplex is in sane. It may seems like overpriced but honestly with the equity it has now, at the end of the day I think it is worth it

 Hello Rebecca! I can totally understand you! Are you working with a local agent? I, myself just bought a duplex about 8 months ago. If you want, I would love to chat with you and help you at anything!

Hello Saugat! Congratulations on your first rental investment!!! One thing that I have been told by the people that are successful to what I can to achieve, said that it is so much better to focus on one thing at a time. Master one aspect instead of having a pie of every slice there is. 

I personally think that you should focus on your local rentals and learn to be a "landlord" for a moment and learn from yourself more - which sides you are capable of doing yourself and stuff that you may need someone else's expertise.

You seems like you have the drive for it! Go get it!!! and good luck! Are your properties in Spokane?

awesome! Thank you @Naomi Pinger! I did went with Rockwell Institute and hopefully pass the exam before this year ends!

Currently browsing for a real estate online course. I am in Washington State, any advise where to take it?
