Slicing off thousands of dollars and pushing a deal out helps who?

There's always another angle, or something else to learn, in real estate - so many ways to slice the onion.The knowledge and skills you gain now will serve you for the rest of your life, so the earlier you start, the better in my opinion!

Any which way it gets sliced I’d say the real estate is much better and safer than going into a “safe” fund.

A big difference if you have 750k to invest and are buying at 2,500,000 then some strong suburban areas can open up.If you have say 300k and will not add more funds to it then a DST can work for instance where you own a small slice of a 10 million high quality property.

You're 21, you're optimistic, you just finished college, you finished the pre-licensing education that taught you a bunch of factually incorrect garbage that you now need to spend years un-learning, you think you're the greatest thing since sliced bread, I get it.

You brokering, slicing and dicing notes from bulk sales, have license will travel thing?

She told me that her "slice" was down to $500/mo after 18 months of ownership.

The cash buyers I know all tell me they'd rather buy from small wholesalers than the bigger companies because they know the "wholesale" companies have taken a huge slice of the pie and the prices they are selling at don't give them much wiggle room for rehab.

Either way you slice it cut your housing cost some way because that'll slow down you acquiring your next properties.If you plan to do the BRRRR strategy I would lean towards doing one project to start - cash or financed is up to you.

But that's a very small slice of the population pie, indeed!
