Seconding what @Max Wilhite said, Multi-Family is a great way to get started.

I ask why and they say "well I did not know my grandpop was going to die" and right when they say that usually they start to understand.Correct.  

Love your mindset—real estate is a long game, and you're starting with the right attitude!

I would recommend joining ULI (Urban Land Institute) They have a network of people that can provide exactly what you are looking for I discovered their youtube page last year and started binging......I would like to do the same...

I’m not in Tyler, but I know how important it is to find like-minded people when starting out.

@Krista Lance, I would say with 7 properties that its a good time to start thinking about bookkeeping software.

Hi everyone,I’m new to the U.S. and excited to start my real estate journey!

They don't want you saying to start in 2 weeks but your framer takes longer and now they can't start for 4 weeks.

I specialize in small multifamily properties and house hacking working alongside BiggerPockets podcast guest Andrew Freed to help investors find high-performing deals in Central MA.My Background:  - Started in late 2019 I utilized an FHA loan to get my first 3 family property in Fitchburg, spent about a year fixing it up and soon after I refinanced. 

Definitely a good start into stepping into a bigger city with you being from WA stateHey Tenzapa,Thanks for the warm welcome!
