I appreciate the words of encouragement.

I would encourage you to self manage.

He married her and after some of her friends and family members encouraged her to divorce him and she basically got half of what he owned.

Hi Radhika-Congratulations on being a homemaker with young kids and looking to do more for the family financially now that the kids are older.You have 50K to get started but are having difficulty choosing markets and deciding where to begin and you are thinking about single-family long-term rentals out of state because you live in California.I would encourage you to start with duplexes, preferably with 2 bedrooms in each unit for tenant longevity, and ideally with separate utilities.

To mitigate risks, I strongly encourage getting a home inspection to fully understand what you're buying.If the property checks out, this area can be a great addition to your portfolio.

Knowing what i know today, I always encourage new investors to do their first investments with professional guidance if you can find it -not so much the guru courses, but a personal approach from a genuinely experienced investor in the market you are entering.
