If you are just starting out, tax and foreclosure auctions are probably not the way to go for most people.

I’ve built a 12-door portfolio here since 2019, and it’s been one of the best decisions I’ve made in real estate.If you’d like to dive deeper into Detroit-specific strategies or need some pointers on how to get started, feel free to reach out!

Hey BiggerPockets Community,I’ve got 2 extra tickets for Hunter Thompson's RaiseFest happening at the Arizona Grand Resort & Spa — starting this Wednesday, February 19.

It seems like a simple thing, but reaching out in BiggerPockets about getting started as a real estate investor is a great first step.

Hey gang - A partner and I just started a local RE investor meetup.Q: For anyone that attends these regularly or runs one....what are some of your best practices/tips/tricks to keep your audience engaged and growing?

We’ve also found that at least one of the authorities (Jefferson county) started to run some kind of property specific rental comps which can also affect the max they’re willing to pay. 

As a starting point: -If they work full time and make $700k a year -Don't want to or can't spend time self managing a short-term rental -Don't have a spouse who wants to take the lead on managing the rentals They are likely not going to directly reduce their taxable income with real estate year-to-year. 

@Jahniya Butlercan you start with a house hack instead? 

Now, my journey starts.

Hi Benjamin, call three insurance companies and get a quote, start there first.
