Network with experienced investors, choose a real estate strategy, research markets with job and population growth, learn financing options, familiarize yourself with property management, develop a long-term plan, and leverage your stock experience to evaluate markets and trends.Good luck!

We both knew we were aligned in our goals and had a clear understanding of our respective roles in the deal from the outset.If seller financing is part of the equation, look for someone who’s not only experienced with creative financing but also understands how to manage the potential risks involved.

LIHTC eligible, opportunity zone, STR eligible, property management in the area….Pretty decent list. didn't know where to start so I figured I would ask the more seasoned of the bunch.

Padsplit may also be an option if you want to be a little less active in managing. 

My dad used to manage other people's properties but eventually quit because the money wasn't worth it and he always ended up prioritizing their properties so as not to get any hassle from them.Another way to approach this might be to go all in on one project yourself and see how far that money gets you. 

My wife and I are real estate investors based in Katy, and I/we are looking to connect with local investors, real estate agents, property managers, and contractors in the area.

For some background info, I am 22 years old, and I graduated college in May 2024 with my bachelor's in construction management.

We never hired a manager because it simply would have taken too much out of our profits.

Which gives me much more control of the money/asset management than just leaving it in the market for alot more years.

This may be a little overkill for some people, however, as many tax accountants will work great for most folks.I especially agree with #3 as well since a CPA who is an investor might only have one or two long-term rental properties that they've shopped out to a property manager.
