Push through it, you may even need to have a second, consistent paying job and thats OK, until you get established.

Build a strong brand, leverage content marketing, and establish a personal brand to attract investors and build credibility.

Real estate investing has been a passion of mine for time with my mother also having invested early on where I likely have gotten the love and desire to follow similar foot steps.I have taken last 6 months to educate myself and currently own a single family home as primary residence and would like to expand to multi family properties (2-4 units) for additional stream of income, not to mention potential tax benefits for long-term investing.Based on current living situation, I have a fair amount of equity established in my primary residency along with having enough cash to either pay off house completely or use towards investing in a multi family property.Given that I'm the sole source of income for our household with my wife being the home maker for our two kids under 2, trying to weigh out risks with getting started now or perhaps waiting. 

To establish a 50-50 ownership in both the property and future profits, you'll need a formal agreement outlining each person's contributions and rights.

Of course when doing the 1031 exchange your basis will carry forward into your replacement property.Where you have a potential issue is establishing your intent to hold those properties but immediately selling one or more them as soon as you have them ready. 

The area has attracted a lot of new young professionals with their work from home marketing that gives $10,000 to qualified families to help them establish themselves in the area.

I'm looking to purchase my first property with my fiancé (both 25) with the goal being to establish our primary residence together, as well as giving me the opportunity to add equity/value via rehab before moving on and converting the property into a rental within a year or so to kickstart an investment portfolio.An interesting lead that recently came up is my parent's neighbor's house.
