Quote from @Benjamin Larabee: Hi all,My wife and I have worked over the last 7 years to build a rental portfolio and are getting to the point where the bookkeeping/data entry tasks are becoming too time consuming.

I built a house and it’s going to be difficult to sell as I have no equity in it because of Cost to build.

I want to find something local (Los Angeles area), move in, do small renovations to possibly build up more equity, do a 1031 exchange, and find something better. 

Build up your cash as you build your knowledge and network5.

It builds wealth and most importantly cuts your expenses and gives you a front row seat at being a landlord.Was the best thing my wife and I ever did.  

I also have no problem doing some sweat work to build equity in the beginning as well.

Go to BUILD YOUR TEAM at the top of the screen and look for local investors or meetups in your area.

If you surround yourself with the right people—those who are actually in the trenches doing deals—you’ll pick up the skills, capital, and opportunities naturally.Looking forward to connecting more and building with you, Robert.
