@Gil CanfuBased on my experience working with over 400 investors, investing in a single-family home in Dallas with a $300K budget is a smart move due to the area's strong rental demand and appreciation potential.

No syndication experience but there are about a dozen quality RV/Mobile home parks on market in Oregon, several with owner carry options that can be passiv-ish with management in place.

My day job is being a financial professional, so I have good experience with underwriting and sales that I believe can be translated to real estate.

We would like to connect to exchange our experience.

With experience, they have the right systems in place and know what doesn't work. 

My first question for you would be what your experience is?

I’m a professional civil engineer with years of experience in construction and entrepreneurship.

Loan officers with 25 years of experience typically are more experienced, and have less time per file, because they have an abundance of files.Loan officers with 25 months of experience typically are less experienced, but have more time to devote to you.I can't write my own loans, so when I'm getting a loan I prefer working with less busy people when I'm doing my own real estate investment, they're more responsive and dedicated it feels like.

Overall, Section 8 is a good way to get some pretty reliable income to get the property cash-flowing, provide additional experience, as well as with the required annual inspections, make sure your property stays in a good condition! 

I would love to talk with you to hear of your experience with him.
