Or should I focus entirely on building cash flow and leveraging real estate?

The media/influencer community will pick up on an anecdotal property that got into trouble and say it's a sign of turbulent times ahead.

It was on the market for a long time because it didn't qualify for conventional financing will it being unlivable. 

@Matthew Strack It would depend on your goals and comfort level.

The city of Oklahoma City has issued a moratorium on home share licenses and many landlords are converting STRs into MTR or regular rentals. 

Upfront expenses and monthly payments must be considered when calculating the return on your investment.EXAMPLEYou cash out $100,000 of your equity and use this as a down payment on a $400,000 investment property.

Read the NC general statute on wholesaling and ask frequent questions to the real estate commission.

Hey Bigger Pockets, I’ve decided to get out of my analysis paralysis and actually jump into real estate investing- focusing initially on wholesaling.

When I first started, I focused a lot on learning and networking too.
