I’m motivated to bring the same dedication to real estate.I’d love to connect with others who started small and scaled their portfolios or anyone experienced in land flipping, wholesaling, or creative financing strategies.

In my mind a condo will provide me:-CAPEX is controlled by HOA (I only have to pay, not dedicate time)-Low down payment-Cheap financing paymentI plan to live there for 3-5 years and after could expect a NIAF around ($200). 

Quote from @Austin Wolff: As someone who lived in Los Angeles and also needed to invest out of state, I've dedicated my career to market analysis and selection, and I personally think you've chosen pretty good markets.

Definitely not, IMO, Been there and its a waste of time and money and risk unless you have dedicated plan to take advantage of having it.

It requires guts and determination and dedication and a lot of time. 

May be expensive but they are dedicated to private lender law, securities law and creditors' rights.

It will take time, it will take work, it will take dedication. 

Currently, I'm working on my fix-and-flip project, diving into renovation and value-building with excitement and dedication.

My solution for this is the create a dedicated email address to send your REI recording keeping to! 

Dedicate one checking account and credit card exclusively to real estate.
