I’m currently in the process of searching for my first property, which I hope to house hack and eventually convert into a long-term rental. 

I'm seeking to be in an environment with like minded individuals to learn and network to grow my portfolio and eventually network to collaborate on larger deals once I have a better understanding of the commercial side. 

@Dan AudinoFor path #1, is your eventual goal to rent out the property?

Hello everyone my name is Omar I’m 24 ,just recently came across wholesaling  and I started doing some research on it and it seem like it’s the best option for me now to get my foot on the door and eventually start doing flips down the road. since I’m new to wholesaling and barely know anything about it what books, YouTube chancel, podcasts, even a course that might help me get on track and learn the fundamental of wholesaling.I always come across some type of strategy of real estate that I might consider to pursue but I never end up staying consistent and taking action but my goal is just to learn about wholesaling and find a way to take action now.

My goal is to eventually get to shopping centers and strip malls. 

Eventually I realized that you really just need to look for a deal that fits your criteria.

(One went with another manager eventually, and the property is listed for $400/month less than we listed it, and the other finally got rented to a solo professional.)

Instead I want to take advantage of the opportunity I have of living rent free to invest my time and money in STR's to hopefully build that portfolio up and eventually make that my main source of income (I understand that will take time).

Do that enough times and you'll eventually find a deal you can afford.

In New Hampshire, title laws are strict, so we couldn’t move forward without obtaining a signature from a living heir.The title company dug deep and eventually located a distant relative—a niece of the deceased owner, two generations removed.
