I absolutely agree that building strong relationships within the real estate community is crucial for success.

Every market can be invested in successfully.

So you can find better performing investment properties.

@Joseph Kirton How much time do you feel is needed to be successful?

My ultimate goal is to become successful with my real estate investments so I don’t have to rely so much on my job and be able to spend more time at home with my soon to be wife and future children.

You're at the right place to become a successful investor.
