I got started with BP as well and quit my job in 2024. 

Changing jobs!

Great job for taking the leap.

Quote from @Jay Fayz: Hello everyone,I've recently been exploring real estate as a potential career path and I'm looking for advice on the best entry-level job to gain experience and knowledge.

Get 3 jobs...if you work 8-5pm pick up OT or an evening job, and a weekend job. 

I look forward to helping others achieve their real estate dreams while continuing to grow as an investor myself.Eric Welcome back to BP Eric and congrats on your growth!

Misjudged the job cost (contractor error, usually results in asking for more money)2.

STRs work best in tourist-heavy areas with high demand, while LTRs perform well in markets with stable economies and diverse job opportunities.

💹*Reminder- The Pearl Development is predicted to create over 11,000 jobs in Mecklenburg County within the next 10 years & will be both a medical education institution and an international headquarters. 

With a budget of $300K-$400K, you could potentially find single-family homes or small multi-units in those areas.I'd recommend researching rental demand near universities like Duke or NC State or even checking out neighborhoods with strong job growth near tech hubs.
