If you have any tips, resources, or advice for someone just starting out, I’d greatly appreciate your insights.Some specific things I’m working on right now:* Building a strong buyers list.* Identifying motivated sellers and honing my outreach.* Learning the ins and outs of structuring win-win deals.I’m open to partnering, collaborating, or just grabbing coffee to exchange ideas.

Quote from @Vanessa Lule: Hi all,I’m in talks with a landlord about leasing a property for $3,600/month, but that’s above my budget.

Everyone has budgets and you are not in the luxury bracket where I would worry about young partiers etc.

If you would like to chat more about anything specific in this area, feel free to connect.

I also work specifically with investors only in the real estate arena.

I don't know the specifics of your state, but in Mississippi, my property manager has filled for garnishment for the amount of rent that is owed.

If you have specific questions about property management, I'll be happy to help!
