I spend 1 hr (on the high side) per month managing. 

Get a side gig for extra cash flow, stop all extra spending and live like a monk. 

Can you message me privately to chat? 

I am interested in working for a REIT firm or a private investor who can show me the ropes of investing in residential, commercial, and/or multifamily real estate.

I would strongly recommend spending the money to meet with an attorney for an hour before you put anything in writing to your tenant.Good Luck!

Hire a contractor or GC with clear terms for execution and completion.Secure financing early, whether through cash, private lenders, or hard money loans, ensuring reserves are included for unexpected expenses.

In either case, the wholesaler usually doesn't need to provide their own funds to complete the deal unless they are doing a double closing and need private financing for that purpose.The title company plays a key role in ensuring that the funds are processed correctly and that the transaction is legally and financially finalized, including disbursing funds to the seller and paying any fees owed to the wholesaler, private lender, or other parties involved.Contract with Seller: The wholesaler secures a property under contract, usually with a small earnest money deposit.Find Buyer: The wholesaler finds a buyer (investor) and assigns the contract, earning an assignment fee (difference in price).Closing: The buyer wires funds, the wholesaler receives the assignment fee, and the title company handles the transaction.Costs:Earnest Money: Small deposit.Marketing: Costs to find deals.Funding (if needed): For double closings.Profit: The wholesaler earns the assignment fee.prioritize transparency and value.

So, if an agent says that, its not something you should be spending your time second guessing.

If you want to be completely self-sufficient, you're willing to build an Earthbag home or another building that can be earthquake proofed but can still be run without public utilities, you can spend a ton of money on a well and can have that well water processed to remove contaminated mine crap, you have a great off-road vehicle and you can figure out how to deal with the flooding without redirecting that water onto someone else's land then you can definitely live there.If it's an Investment you're after, give that up.

@Agustin Conti Are you sure you'll be able to sell it and recoup your spend?
