Hello everyone, I've been buying and rehabbing properties for long term rentals for going on 8 years now, I enjoy buying properties, designing them, and seeing the end product. 

As a homeowner in OC, I have enjoyed appreciation in the past few years, but look at how there are so many rental listings:Isn't this a hint for what's coming next?

If you have any specific questions feel free to reach out I always enjoy talking REI!  

For between $50-80,000 you can likely get into a decent duplex which would help you figure out if you enjoy investing or not.

@Jack Medford Hope you enjoyed your time in CA! 

Enjoy one of the best locations. 5 min drive to Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist Hospital (or a 15 min walk), 10 min drive to downtown Winston Salem, 15 min drive to Wake Forest University.

You seem confused over the difference between a real estate investor and a lender.As a real estate investor, you own the property and enjoy cash flow, appreciation, tax benefits, and equity.

I would enjoy all the contacts anyone could provide for me!  

Being new to the REI world, I'm eager to connect with fellow investors, real estate agents, and anyone with insights into the NC market.Whether it's grabbing a coffee, enjoying a drink, or visiting potential properties, I'm open to various ways to connect and learn from each other.

That and nursing- Americas final economic engines at the end of days ;)I’ve enjoyed following this discussion as a spouse of an 18+ years realtor pro, who reps buyers and sellers, ethically, profitably, and deservedly of her success.America is litigiousAmericans in commerce are self centeredDual agency is the next “industry shattering” class action lawsuit in the makingSeparate representation in major asset acquisition is simply common sense for the masses, the industry evolved to accommodate that.
