As for the areas to target, my goal in getting our feet wet as real estate investors--and since we plan to be living in Sac--is to find a property we can live in while renting out one or more units to help cover our housing expenses, which we can then hold and continue to rent out when we move.

This city continues to grow and evolve, making it a strong choice for real estate investment.

I have a job that also affords me a lot of spare time in my schedule and I'm looking to use that time to begin/continue/grow a real estate portfolio.

By the way, if I didn't continue Velocity Banking, I would still pay off my home about 5.5 years sooner and save $30k+ in interest.

How I would go about it is bring a deal to someone ( a friend or colleague) that I knew had money, offer them the terms I have in mind and continue until I find one.

Continued success!

Financial freedom isn't simply about replacing your current income, because inflation continuously drives up prices, making a fixed income insufficient to maintain your standard of living.

I would be happy to share my experience in knowledge in this area (MA and RI) as I continue to look to build my portfolio. 

The simple fact that you want to continue to build with us and add to your portfolio is a humbling compliment.  2025 works great for us and we will be here for you when you're ready.

There's no guarantee that there will be more inventory in the spring, and you should just continue to look, and when the right opportunity comes up, just grab it regardless of the timeline.
