Stop hanging out with your deadbeat buddies who spend all day drinking, talking sports, and otherwise wasting away.

While I've been able to get out of my W2 after acquiring 30 properties, I've learned that you still need to generate some sort of active income unless most of your doors are completely debt free.

I know there are a lot of agents who are active investors.

They are actively participating and easy to reach. 

If there is an active loan or lease, I've heard it has become a nightmare for listings.

SFD vs condo vs 2-4 unit, hold vs flip, turnkey vs rehab, passive vs active...it really comes down to each individual property/opportunity, what your goals with the property are, and if the numbers make sense or not.Best of luck!

Franklinton is undergoing rapid transformation, with developments like The Gravity Projects, new breweries, and an expanding arts district driving change.Safety and Future Outlook:Increased Investments: New developments bring better lighting, public spaces, and infrastructure, naturally improving safety.Community Growth: More residents and businesses create activity, discouraging crime and boosting the neighborhood's vibrancy.Police and Outreach: Enhanced patrols and local organizations address crime and substance issues.While challenges remain, ongoing investments and gentrification make Franklinton safer and more attractive.

I would get active at some local meetups where you can meet other housing providers to get a lot of these things answered.

Outside of real estate, I enjoy bodybuilding, working on cars, and anything that keeps me physically active outdoors, which helps me remain grounded and focused.I'm looking forward to networking, exchanging ideas, and building lasting relationships in this community.

I’m fairly new to the BP forums and BP site in general, But I have been very active on the podcasts and books stacking education and knowledge in the real estate field.
