it doesn’t really matter.In my experience, cash flow will never make you rich.  

But I was thinking the same thing…and very pleased to know someone with your breadth of experience concurred.  

You don't need to know everything to get started; you need a foundation to build on, and the rest will come through experience and then refining your education.You can build a basic understanding of investing in 3-6 months.

I was determined and wanted something that I could sustain for the long term for my family's livelihood and control the effort I put in and the results I got from that effort.I specialize in sourcing properties for fix and flip investors nationwide (wholesaling, but with real-world experience and closed profitable deals for myself and my investor partners) with a roadmap to acquire rental properties as finances permit.A lot of our deals are currently coming through organic search as I have a background in substantial traffic generation through search engine optimization and organic means.

You could also look into regional banks or credit unions with experience in real estate development for middle-ground options.If I were you, I’d spend some time shopping around for the best rate/terms.

Within my 20 years of experience, I'd highly recommend looking into Central Florida, especially areas like Tampa, Holiday, New Port Richey, Port Richey, Seffner, and Lakeland.

I'm also open to discussing the properties I have purchased, analyzing which deals have been successful and which ones have not.In my experience, out-of-state investors who buy single-family homes in the suburbs usually see better returns.

Happy to share some of my OOS experiences. 

That experience taught me to always overestimate CapEx and vacancy buffers... it’s much easier to sleep at night when you’ve got those cushions in place.From what I’ve read in Bloomberg, these challenges aren’t unique, especially with rising rates.

I wanted to share a horrible BRRRR experience with a property in Jacksonville, FL.
