I've also been told that when you are tackling a problem, you find a smarter friend to help you find a better way.My name is Gabriel and I'm new to BP.

My, kudos to you for tackling a sticky situation!

Our group has a little bit of everything at the moment and is always open to others.My wife and I had some of these same issues when deciding what to do and shiny object syndrome gets me every time I see a project.I suggest just picking one to start with, Long Term Rental might be the easiest then after you get that done you could try another method after that until you are confident and understand the processes to tackle multiple at once.

Those who take the time to educate themselves (I always say, invest in themselves) first end up finding success if they can tackle their fear. 2.

@Tony CapraLet me tackle your question about 1099 stuff first, but there's actually a bigger picture here that most accredited investors have caught onto.

The primary issue with coaching is that very, very few are ready for it when offered, irrespective of the cost or their ability to pay for it.When you're new to real estate, you have several challenges:1) Inability to know which aspects to focus on2) Lack of Dealflow or opportunities to learn from.I know people who have tackled #1 by taking real estate training and passing their license exam but are clueless about the business or what makes a deal or even how to talk to prospects.I say you focus on the basics first: real estate fundamentals, theory, title, documents, escrow, valuation and financing.

How to tackle this situation?

I Also tried to tackle a leaking pipe by myself but after 2 days of getting frustrated I decided to go the property management route.

I'm wrapping up my first SFR deal, it has been a gradual learning process and I tackled one issue per month; it was very time consuming, frustrating, and I was more involved in every step than I would like to be moving forward.

Over time, I might tackle non-performing firsts or seconds.
