Quote from @Michael Nguyen: My friend and I are starting our real estate journey together as partners.

Excited to see where this journey takes you!

Bigger Pockets is a great place for education and networking. 

Looking into different mortgage options, including FHA or conventional loans, and weigh the pros and cons of tapping into your 401kYou’re on a great track, looking forward to hearing more about your journey!

Just ignore them.No one can deny how pointless it is to be on a wholesaling forum—designed to teach, educate, encourage, and support you—only to respond to a genuine cry for help with negativity or by telling someone to give up.

Looking to find a real estate education. 

EDUCATE YOURSELF - yes, it will take time, but will lead to a selection that better meets your expectations & avoids potentially costly surprises!

Best of luck with your investing journey in San Antonio!

There are good resources out there for passive investors if you dig a little, focus on your education and build up cash reserves for the upcoming opportunity. 

A well-placed hotel or Airbnb may outperform traditional apartments, but this depends on zoning and market demand.I hope this helps clarify the steps and gives you a good starting point for your land development journey.
