I'm here to grow, learn, and build a community in the Staunton, Virginia area.

If you can get good at networking and building relationships by establishing rapport, you'll get ahead much quicker in this niche.

What ever area you look at make sure to look at the age of the building.

Helps with your debt to income, better opportunities at cash flow, and typically requires less down to purchase.In regards to challenges, I usually build in an extra 10-15% to deal with things that I can't see behind the walls, including dry rot, electrical or plumbing issues, etc.

The current tenant was already in place when I purchased the building, and their lease is set to expire in a few months.

I called the zoning department and they are telling me this is a Mixed use building (N zone).

Every property will bring its own lessons, so just be ready to roll with the punches and use what you learn to make your next investment even better.

With a 4-unit building, that’s a very high customer concentration.

I got my GC license a couple years ago so I could build houses myself as I was sick of dealing with contractors.I've hired plenty of contractors that were not licensed/insured and it went fine.
