I know you probably want to pull the trigger and just jump right into things, but I highly recommend building up a nest egg first.Start by saving about 6 months worth of expenses.

I can't change my Property manager's way of doing business, but I can change who I hire to manager my nest egg.

Quote from @Dave Skow: @Francisco Lopez- thanks for the post and best of luck with the  move ...tough question to answer without more information ....in general - having a  solid  nest  egg  of cash in hand  to live on is  incredibly important  when moving and  re establishing ...so I woud recommend  considering selling ( even though at a slightly lower  price than  you woudve  got  6-9 monhs ago )  ...and  then move on wiht your plans  in the PNW  with cash in the bank and a much more  streamlined life that you can  focus on .   

I appreciate the post because even on some of the podcasts that I listen to, you're hearing people starting out......already having a nice nest egg to fall on.

There's a decent change the nest egg that your end buyer was counting on for down payment was sitting in equities and took a big hit the last 2 weeks.

My background/why I'm interested in this product: I'm a newbie investor looking to augment my nest egg so as to be able to either put in all-cash offers on properties, or be able to BRRR with 100% financing so as to repeat more often.My stats:800 credit score110K in available personal credit lines already~1% of existing credit line utilizationThe timeline:Early January 2018: After hearing about Fund & Grow on Clayton Morris' podcast, I decided to give them an initial call. 

Then at the end of the year, if you have been managing your finances smartly, you will likely have a small nest egg to apply to your real estate ventures.A corporate job should not be overlooked.

It wouldn’t cut too much into your nest egg that presumably you will need for your new business and the medical practice.

I'm considering doing some direct mail marketing in search of seller finance and possibly wholesale opportunities, though I'm not interested in being one of the naughty wholesalers that the gray beards always hate on :P I've also considered pulling from my small nest egg to get started (HELOC or 401k loan), or to reach out to family for a loan, but I don't really like the idea of borrowing for a down payment to borrow. 

It can be difficult to get someone not familiar with investment to release part of there nest egg.
