Learning all of this is new to me.

You have come to a great place to learn how to build wealth and income with real estate.

Just trying to get started and although there is plenty of information out there, I thought the value was in getting the first deal with them and then learn how to replicate it.

I just learned that builders risk and liability insurance coverage can cease once a CO is issued for a new build.

You're learning about the eviction process, tenant screening (never "word of mouth" again), the power of a lease WHEN not IF a neutral third party needs to be involved, tenant/landlord laws, and managing tenants who don't care about your business the way you do. 

You're facing a common investor challenge: learning from experience (and sometimes mistakes).

There are a lot of good meetups for real estate investors in the area that would be good to grow your network and learn from others that are and have been in your shoes as a new investor, message me and I can share on some specific monthly meetups.Also sharing some multifamily data, this is Boston proper so it has an interesting trend compared to the rest of Massachusetts.

I’m willing to put in the time and effort to learn and grow in this industry, but I could really use some guidance on where to start.

I’m excited to learn from this community, share ideas, and build valuable connections.

Looking back on your earlier projects, what were the biggest mistakes or lessons learned in securing funding or managing build costs?
