If you can establish a solid network (even virtually at first), and maybe leverage your savings to buy a property with rehab in mind, the reward could be the path you're looking for to make those five-year goals a reality.Of course, the risks are there, but if you're comfortable and see the upside, it could be worth leaning into.If you need more insight into BRRRR execution or anything specific about market selection and building a remote team, feel free to ask.Hope that helps!

If anyone has experience with this, I’d really appreciate your insights!

@Richard SchubertI’d love to get your insights on the neighborhood since you have firsthand experience.

Quote from @Stephen Smith: @Jonathan Greene Thank you for your insight! 

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts and insights.

I'm sure there are agents and investors with deeper insights, but for most of us, a consistent, long-term approach—similar to dollar-cost averaging when investing in index funds—seems like the most practical strategy.That being said, I am also interested to hear what others have to say though, so thank you for the post!

Would really appreciate anyone's insight or experience in this.

Thanks for the insights, much appreciated! 

Thank you for your insight @Mike Lambert, very helpful!
