There are many different ways to invest in real estate, just make sure what you want aligns to your long term goals.

If you and your husband write out what your goals are then make sure your 1st step aligns to those goals.

You just need to pick a strategy that aligns with your goals, build a team if it isn’t going to be local and take action.

Real estate is a great investment, but it needs to work hand in hand with your overall investment portfolio, and it needs to align with your long term goals. 

When you know that deep inner WHY, THEN you can align goals and investment strategies to get you there. 

Are your long term goals aligned?

I make sure they are adjusted/aligned perfectly.

this is extremely important and will also help you identify areas that don't align with your investing strategy.

So just find one that aligns with you and you plan and start analyzing deals and building relationships.

The best-aligned fees are ones where I'm purchasing the property through the realtor (commission), they oversee the rehab (depending on what needs to be done $2000-$3000... they aren't the GC but oversee the GC), and they lease it up (fee) and even might have it under management (ongoing fee).
