One thing to understand about real estate as an asset class is that it is a depleting asset, meaning there is only so much of it (think oil).

Quote from @Jimmy Rojas: I live in Arizona and homes here are sky high, youd be lucky to get %6 interest rate, I would be a 1st time home buyer, apart from being 1099 employed would Trumps real estate plans benefit the little guys like me? 

Also, how much time do you want to spend doing real estate vs. your main job or extra work in order to fund it.

My name is Bridget and I'm a licensed realtor with New Western here in Jacksonville!

I decided to break it down and share the REAL costs and not just estimates.A lot of the work was screwing down and fixing the subfloor as well as completely screwing and securing the ceiling sheetrock.

I'm a licensed RE agent, contractor, and investor. 

Essentially gamifying the learning of real estate jargon, terms, laws, etc!

Would going to local real estate meet ups be the best way to find potential investors I could partner with?

Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

Identify good brokerages and licensed R.E. professionals, and those who you send your marketing to.
