Renovation work throughout both apartments, gutted and refinished the basement as well as extensive work in the private backyard.

Absorb as much as you can, find the passion and you will be reaping the successes well before your 30th birthday.

Another option is to look into some funds as well that allow smaller investments. some are anywhere from 500-$10,000 minimums and accept non accredited investors (through regulation a+).If you ran numbers of a loan paying p&i at 10% but ot being able to reinvest the principal payments you realize how low your returns actually are. so yes notes are great but also understand that idle money for any investment is not fun.

Have you established a team yet?  

Appreciate any feedback as well as similar stories that the community might be able to shareThanks and Happy New Years to all! 

I have a few friends that do MTRs in the Denver area and they are doing well. 

Well 50% is a bit much, IF you renovated properly.

In the Atlanta area they do well.

Good potential for appreciation/rent growth upside as well in the next 5-10 years in my opinion with the market still being one of the most affordable in the country.

Please add me as well.
