Encourage him to set long-term goals, connect with mentors, and use educational resources while keeping the learning process fun and balanced with other activities to prevent burnout.

Thanks @Jay Hinrichs for the warm welcome and your encouragement and advice about my local market.

I considered encouraging my son to do that.

If you have experienced similar difficulties, I encourage you to consider collaborating with me.

Scott actually teaches his group to encourage buyer/tenants to refi as soon as they are able to.

I would encourage you to break it down into. 1) single or multi family 2) Buy and hold vs flip --I would definitely buy and hold if you have limited knowledge when it comes to property repairs (you can always flip later).  

@Patrick Shep I would absolutely encourage you to apply without any co-signor.  

I would encourage you to take a trip to the market you plan to invest in and tour some houses in the neighborhoods that you are looking at. 

I encourage you to meet with a few different brokerages in your area and see which one is the best fit for you.

Thank you, @Jonathan Greene for the encouragement and intro to @Leka Devatha.
