Hi All,I'm a semi experienced real estate investor.

You'll probably get better service approaching it that way than hiring a professional manager anyway.  

I’m glad to be here and have many different professionals like you all reach out and help new beginners like myself!   

Readers should seek professional advice.

Let's see what more experienced members have to say. 

Readers should seek professional advice.

I would consider staying with your parents and investing in another market that stretches your dollar and covers the cost of a professional property manager.

Families forced to uproot their lives, children experiencing the trauma of eviction, and homelessness rates breaking records year after year.

One of the constants that I still see from when I first started on BP in early 2016 is the willingness of experienced ( some on this very thread ) folks in different aspects of real estate to try and help newbies and others with advice and perspective.I think it really is a testament to the fact that even though the investing environment has undergone many changes over those years the willingness to continue to help others has not changed.It helped me tremendously when I had to crash course on small MF ownership and I am grateful to all who helped with posts that they didn't even know that I had read and learned from.And yes the search function remains fairly useless and unchanged in that regard since then to the detriment of us all.

Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?
