Anything is possible, but being successful as an agent under 30 is incredibly hard, because clients usually don't pick agents that are much younger than they are.Always sail with the wind, it is easier.Getting into sales at a young age is a great idea, but I think you'll find it much easier (and make more money) doing something where your age is not in your way like flipping couches, washing driveways or selling lawn services.

If you're willing to live with roommates it'll likely be much easier to find options. 4-5 beds is usually ideal for offsetting the mortgage. 2) Know your local zoning codes and go down to the planning department if you can.

@Timothy YangCosigning with family members can offer larger down payments and easier loan terms, but may limit future credit or access.

We stick to the 1960's inventory, which is easier to work on, but I totally agree cash flow as in "replace my W2" is a myth, it is necessary and also better to re-invest cash into asset upgrades. 

Once you fully understand what the regulations are that apply to your specific Housing Authority  it becomes much easier to be a Section 8, Landlord.

to get to the point, i would find an area likely to experience more demand and ensure the financials work out for both MTR & LTR's. i would ideally start out with a fourplex and depending how that goes, possibly scale from there. i do believe that it is more traditional to syndicate on larger properties so i am wondering if you know if it is possible to syndicate, starting off, for one fourplex or even one MTR condo. my gut feeling is to start with one beach-front condo in florida that requires $37,250 down . a new construction fourplex, however, i could finance with a USDA loan myself and not have to consider investors so that may make things easier, possibly.no airbnb's. maybe VRBO. two week minimum stay. only in areas very likely to have housing demand due to new factories being built.i own/run an STR right now and it is going well with only the occasional hiccup.

He can't do everything.That being said, it does appear they grew too fast and so it unfortunately doesn't surprise me that the results are beginning to drag. 

I'd skip the build process as it's timely and you need a construction loan and your overall financials appear tight for that.

Most property owners that get into the start of foreclosure sell before it becomes REO...the internet makes it much easier for owners to sell instead of take the foreclosure route.

I predicted a 20 to 30 percent correction in prices this year, and I was dead wrong.It appears that investors are continuing to come in for the long haul, with the knowledge that positive cash flow isn't realistic in the early years of ownership.
