My focus leans more toward equity appreciation than cash flow, and as a rookie investor, I’m aiming to put aside about $25-30k for investments each year.In the meantime, I’m looking to connect with like-minded folks here for mentorship, partnerships, apprenticeships, and even collaborations.Would love to hear your thoughts, advice, or anything you think might help as I continue piecing everything together!

Id like the CRM to have a power dialer (for calls) and the ability to send SMS texts.

Then you can read a more in-depth book like The Book On Rental Property Investing by Brandon Turner or The Unofficial Guide to Real Estate Investing by Spencer Strauss.2.

This is the simplest method, but it also means your tenants are more likely to abuse the utilities by leaving windows open with the heat or A/C running, leaving lights on, ignoring the toilet that constantly flushes on its own, etc.3.

You'll likely also reduce your cost of living by moving to a stabilized apartment.Depending on the cashflow and debt paydown, you can use this strategy until you've built enough equity to reinvest.On the other hand, getting into a multi-family after refinancing will also help you build substantial equity to rinse and repeat in the coming years.

@Krissi Miramontes sounds like it was a nice project.

DM me if you would like to have a conversation and I can guide you to people I know in the community that could help.

You can read all the books, attend all the seminars and gain great insight from others, however nothing teaches like real life experience.

Fully renovated property all new untilities it seems like a grand slam deal. 

Keep in mind of the I/O(payments/period) and game plan on how fast you'd like to pay it down.
