I'm a new investor, with some rentals and rehabs under my belt.

When I first started saving, I thought that number was impossible, but kept tightening the belt every few months until it wasn't a thought.* Look at your home as if it was a rental, would you rent from you?

What you will typically find is that cold belt states are more heavily overbuilt versus demand whereas many warm belt states are expanding so if one space goes dark under a 20k sq ft box then many tenants ready to jump inline and expand in that area.No retail apocalypse here.

People here don't ask useful questions about the differences between rehabbing a 90-year-old bathroom in a Rust Belt city suburb last remodeled in the 1950s and rehabbing a bathroom in 1990s-era construction in Florida.

Once that process is complete and I have my first tenants under my belt, I'm hoping to buy my first true property (hopefully via the BRRRR strategy). 

I take my figures directly from The Book on Estimating Rehab Costs and judge as best I can from the pics/vid provided by my agent.Again, what am I missing that is preventing me from being the person that gets a few properties under their belt in six months?

Hello, I currently have one small scale deal under my belt and am interested in scaling larger.

When I travel to the Quote un Quote cash flow markets of the mid west and rust belt you can see how industry came and then died.. its taken 20 to 50 years for many of these cities to stabilize and regentrify and you can see the boneyards of massive industrial complexs that were mothballed.. 

Once you get that first year under your belt and a few 5 star reviews, things should pickup.That is how it has been for us.
