There are a lot of different avenues in real estate and it can be overwhelming when you first start out, but my advice is to just get the first deal under your belt.

Congrats on getting your first deal under your belt!

Whether you're just starting out or already have a few deals under your belt, the conversations here are so insightful.

There is also the sun belt markets. 

I only have one deal under my belt so far which was a double-wide house flip.

I may be onboarding two more but I'm still working the nitty gritty out with that landlord since they're 1 bedroom apartments still debating if its worth it, as 1 bedrooms are notorious for their low-profit margins, but they always have high occupancy rates.When I started out, my main goal was to expand my Airbnb portfolio, and now, with two successful properties under my belt and a third on the way, I couldn’t be more grateful for the journey so far.

1. coaching- all of the "coaches" were newbies themselves with about 1 year of experience and about 1 deal under their belts and they always disappear after 2-3 months and get replaced with new "coaches".2. networking- they have a FB group, populated primarily by other newbies. go there to answer questions, and it's likely you'll get other newbies saying "good question". there are lots of newbies hoping to get into a deal, but who wants to put together a team where every single person is brand new with no experience?

But this is Rare.. you cant compare most low value areas of cities in the mid west or Rust belt to Charleston SC.. 

That said - I want 2 or 3 homes under my belt in the next 2 years.
