This is a huge accomplishment and it's great to hear this community has helped you succeed.

I work extremely hard for my money but now I want my money to work for me, I grew up poor in Cuba, my parents didn’t come from much either so I lack the financial knowledge to succeed in life.

So much growth has made investing very easy to succeed. 

And possible to succeed EVERYWHERE.

Hi Ryan,There are many markets where you can succeed including Memphis and Detroit.

Reality of it is if you want to profit typically you need to make a business out of it and only approx 5% of people are actually cut out for handling the operations of a business - this is why you see so many so called “tire kickers” but most of the gurus don’t care and they know right from the start 99% of the time which trainees have a chance to succeed or not but that doesn’t stop them from taking peoples $.

It is an easy industry to break into but a hard industry to actually succeed at because of this low barrier to entry.

q=how+much+income+for+rent&...This is such a basic question and if you can't put the effort into researching the answer - you're highly unlikely to succeed as an investor.

If you can't keep control of your personal finances, you are highly unlikely to succeed in real estate investing.

It may work for rehabbers, but in this business you better find off market properties if you really want to succeed.
