I’ve been investing there since 2019 and built a 12-door portfolio using the BRRRR strategy.

Lastly, always keep your job and build your employment foundation because that keeps you income relevant and lendable.Hey thanks for your reply!

You can hear real-world examples of how others have built their investment portfolio and (hopefully) learn to avoid their mistakes.4.

It’s inspiring that you’re both already running your own businesses—it sounds like you have a great foundation to build on!

Hey Themis, it sounds like you already have a solid foundation in real estate from working in the commercial industry, so it should be a pretty smooth transition into doing your own investments.I would put a lot of focus on building out your team of contractors.

Minimum $100,000 rehab based on my 10 minutes of inspection, shingles missing, foundation problems, cracked tile in house, cracked drywall joints everywhere in the house, rotting deck in backyard etc....

I would still do due diligence such as whole property inspection, lead inspection (depending on when the property was built), appraisal, etc. 

My first thing is to start built relationships with realtors and property managers.

It’s better to pause and confirm than risk relaying false information.Remember, deals are built on relationships, and relationships are built on trust.

And even if they do, they have to be fairly motivated to be willing to do so (even if you've built rapport and all that good stuff).If they are motivated, usually that means the property needs work and they almost certainly won't lend over and above what you buy the property for.
