That’s when I realized I already had a strong connection to the Tampa Bay area—my aunts and uncles live in Largo, just 30 minutes from this home.

I'm not in a huge hurry as the cost of holding the property is low, so I'm taking my time to learn as much as I can and connect with the right people. 

It's a great way to increase your net worth and these loans can also be used to pull cash out of a property as it appreciates allowing you to reinvest money into new deals.Happy to connect to discuss further. 

I’d recommend connecting with an investor-friendly agent in DFW to find off-market deals or fixer-uppers within your budget.

I used to live in Tokyo for 6 years and would like to find a reason to go back more regularly but let me know if you want to connect!

I'm eager to learn from experienced investors, connect with other like-minded individuals, and contribute to the vibrant discussions here.

I was about to connect with them.

In suburban Chicago, historical significance or celebrity ties might create a niche appeal, but they won’t necessarily drive up the home’s market value in the same way as location, condition, and local comps.For a short-term rental, though, it could be a great marketing angle—especially if the person is well-known and has a strong local connection.

Would love to connect =)

I am new to real estate investing and looking to connect with any local investor.
