and you can find an almost unlimited variation on risk ( from low to high leverage, both floating and fixed rate debt, from no to high skin in the game, etc).

The buyer must have 20% to 30% "skin in the game." 

Hi everyone,My husband and I are just starting out in the real estate investing game.

In my opinion, this is much more effective than texting, which often feels like a constant game of cat and mouse with phone carriers.

Its a game of failure... its a numbers game.

In my opinion, this is far more effective than texting, which often feels like a constant game of cat and mouse with phone carriers.The two best strategies I know are inbound methods: direct mail and Google Ads.Direct mail can be costly, but it can also lead to deeply discounted properties.Google Ads, on the other hand, doesn’t require data extraction like calls, direct mail, or texting.

If you can’t replace a refrigerator every 7 years in a rental you shouldn’t be in the game.

Ultimately, forming connections with local investors can be a game changer, providing you with the mentorship and support you need to thrive in unfamiliar markets.

Give your time to the game.
