Our goal is to snowball our efforts and scale quickly over the next few years.I’ve read a few books on real estate investing, and I’ve heard great things about BiggerPockets as a resource and community for learning and networking.

Happy to send over some resources regarding the Columbus Ohio market and why it's a great market to invest into.

Build your knowledge with books, podcasts, and online resources, and network through local REIA meetings and virtual platforms.

Here is a great resource. https://www.areavibes.com/They give you a total livability score and you can type any address in 

Whereas as a Coach segment would provide far more support for new REI people to find resources that fit their needs.  

Testing the entire BRRRR process to see if it's the right strategy for me long-term.building equity through rehab and build out will be best achieved with a lower priced cash purchase---typically wholesale. or word of mouth. depends on the region though. lots of ways to hunt for good BRRRR candidates, but hunting on the MLS typically wont get you low enough prices to make sense....My brother-in-law, who owns a landscaping company in Lee’s Summit, works with a lot of local builders and has been a huge help...This sounds like a great resource for finding subs that will do the work for you independently. most subs can do other types of work as well.If you’ve worked with trustworthy contractors or subcontractors in the Jackson County/MO area (especially those familiar with investment properties), I’d love your recommendations.

BiggerPockets is full of resources designed to help you along your journey, whether you are just getting started or a seasoned investor.

Let me know if you want to get connected with data and resources in the area. 

Meetup.com is a good resource for those but some of the groups will also post here on Bigger Pockets Marketplace too.

Developing strong financial and business acumen is also crucial for success as an investor, so that’s another area where you could focus your efforts if getting a license doesn’t align with your plans.I’m here as a resource—feel free to reach out if there’s anything I can do to help!
