Hey all, I listen to the podcast pretty frequently and thought I'd check out the community.I am new to real estate investing, but I did manage to buy 118 acres in Oregon last year at the age of 25.

I have about 10k in liquid cash but will be pulling the rest of the money from my 401k withdrawal.I’ve already called about the taxes as I’m not of retirement age but wanted to know if this made any sense.

Insurance will definitely depend on a few factors - property type/age and value of the home.
