Happy to introduce you if you're interested.Starting out can feel like drinking from a firehose, but remember, everyone starts somewhere.

I've been a broker forever, and remember the early 80's with 16% interest rates.

I remember we were both researching about the same time.  

Every one just has to remember "We accept ALL applications"

Remember, the notion of amassing wealth without investing is a dangerous myth perpetuated by self-proclaimed experts.

Remember you can only sell your listing to one buyer.

Remember most of Pace's minions have limited understanding of this business so you have to take any endorsements with some level of skepticism. 100% true. 

With current interest rates, and they are at least 1% higher with potentially additional points for non owner occupied property, it is hard to find properties that will allow for positive cash flow after paying the mortgage, if you are looking for money for the down payment from a private lender, those are normally at higher than market and I am not sure it would be possible to pay it off.... please remember you need to take into account that you may not have a tenant for a certain amount of time, a tenant may stop paying rent, or you will have a big ticket item to fix, so I would wait if I were you and save to have enough for the down payment and closing costs and perhaps some money set aside for repairs. you also want to make sure that you have your own emergency fund outside of the money needed for the investment property because life happens ....

Remember, no system is perfect, so avoid the temptation of constantly chasing after the next shiny object.

And remember, authentic content that reflects your unique perspective and experience will always be more impactful than recycled material.
