I have been reading and researching the best ways to get some deals under my belt but have a hard time knowing where to start.

I've also been working on building my network, which I've found to be a lot easier said than done when you have no RE investment experience under your belt.

The problem is I need to decide very soon and I wont have that experience under my belt yet. 

Now I still fund stuff in the upper mid west rust belt that hits 1 and 2% with minimal social drama but these are all over an hour from a major metro area.. and they are in areas were appreciation is really depreciation and cash flow is the ONLY reason to own them.

I am a recovering expertise Monetization Strategist (digital content/products, books and programs)- got a corporate job while I figured things out and now that I realized Real Estate is my thing - will keep said job - while I get my first few deals under my belt and get my RE biz going. 

Of course BP is fantastic, but it's always great to learn what else is out there... particularly those courses that are tailored to individuals that already have some deals under their belt. 

In the future I may try to fully hire out, troubleshooting a snow blower or mower that won't start may be my least favorite part of being a landlord lol. 

I hold a corporate job that makes a 6-figure salary and I have a few properties under my belt. 

I have 4 doors under my belt that my wife and I have funded on our own through a mix of cash and traditional mortgage.As I have grown in success, many in my network have asked if they could partner with me on a future deal.

It did help that I have a few rehabs under my belt but obviously this was one of my major rehab.
