I was hoping to do a deal and get my feet wet with something relatively simple to start.

I am also a local Realtor for an amazing investor focused realty team that helps our investors from start to finish and beyond with their investment properties.

If you can't explain to us what the GATOR method is and how it works then maybe you are not ready to make the financial investment to get it started.

Typically starting with a smaller rehab budget of $50K or less (maybe a max of $75K) and avoiding a 1 to 1(or higher) ratio of purchase to rehab costs is recommend when you are first starting out. 

Will start to investigate those areas more I’m also interested in looking into areas like Sharjah and Ajman.

Hi,We recently (Aug 2024) bought commercial land of around 2 acres. this was part of bigger commercial lot (around 25 acres) which had AG exemption and so the taxes that they paid was around $20 each year. we received a 'AG ROLLBACK' letter from the appraisal district that starting 2025 tax year, we will be taxed at it market value resulting in additional taxes, interest and possible penalities for 3 prior years.

I started by patching about a dozen (not small) holes in the wall, re-doing all the drywall in the bathroom, installing new shower plumbing, putting in recessed lighting, installing seamless LVP throughout, texturing/priming/painting all walls, installing new 5 inch pine baseboard all around, and installing custom bathroom vanity/pantry cabinets, and hanging new custom shaker doors in the kitchen.

Our research shows that traveling nurses usually start with a 13-week contract that may be extended.

As a new investor, your best bet is to start small with an app like DealMachine or Propstream so you have direct control of your options.

Totally agree.
