As someone who is just starting out, I am eager to learn and grow in this field.Experience Level: New to investingGoals: My primary goal is to become a full-time rental property investor.

My goal was simple: house hack, and after a year browse to hopefully repeat.

What are your goals in 2025?

It is really important to make sure you find a quality agent who is familiar with the market and neighborhoods there so they can point you in the best direction to meet your investment goals.

My goal is to become a successful investor and eventually build wealth through real estate, and I’m hoping to find mentorship and guidance from those who’ve walked this path before me.If anyone has any tips, advice, or would be open to sharing their experiences, I’d love to connect!

I for one would dislike being pushed into a box, I'd prefer to choose my own stuff...and it really ain't that hard.Interesting concept though, I just do not see the value for a veteran Contractor or Imvestor.I'd ask for references before using them...

Can I ask why you choose Ohio instead of your backyard in Jacksonville? 

There seems to be a bit of hostility here from the contractors, and this was really just a question so I could better understand and more easily work with contractors.This question was for a first-time encounter with a new contractor not recommended to me by anyone I know.I am happy to give weekly checks for progress, purchase all materials upfront including all the fittings, nails, caulk, and whatever else the contractor chooses.

The goal here is to align with investors and educate them about the benefits of long-term strategies.

However, for longer-term profitability, flexible loan terms often have a bigger impact, especially with interest rates or repayment structures that align with your goals.
