If you spend time learning how to manage well, your income will increase, you'll save time, and you'll maintain your sanity with the courage to expand.

I just started to learn about buying rental properties in Japan also.

Going through my real estate journey I have learned a lot, I am 24, a veteran and a graduate from Temple University,I started with aspirations of investing on a property and making a quick flip.My problem lied with fear of failing, my capital and my savings.I decided I wanted to learn the real estate market and know the ins and outs before I would make a bold choice on buying my first real estate home.

Over time, I’d like to expand into short-term rentals, buy-and-hold properties, and flips.I’d love to connect and learn from this amazing community.

Airdna is a good resource and tool, but I wouldn't rely solely on that platform for data.

To learn how to solve a relatable problem. 

I believe that mentorship and collaboration are key to success in this industry, and I'm here to learn from all of you and contribute where I can.If you're in the Charlotte area or have insights to share, I’d love to hear from you!

My advice: don’t overthink it—your first house hack is about learning, so pick a strong rental market, ensure solid demand, and lock in a deal that gets you close to break-even or better.
