I am new to real estate investing and eager to learn more about the industry.

I believe that mentorship and collaboration are key to success in this industry, and I'm here to learn from all of you and contribute where I can.If you're in the Charlotte area or have insights to share, I’d love to hear from you!

I often see him comment on threads where Costa Rica is mentioned saying that Costa Rica isn't a good investment compared to the investments that he does for himself and others in countries like Mexico.  

There are tons of professionals in all industries of real estate here.Hey Ben!

@Kyle Cross you claim to know a lot about the industry, but your questions are vague and so is the info you've provided.Not sure how managing 8 units doesn't, "require much management"?

It’s awesome that you want to use your downtime to learn more about the industry and make some extra income as a VA.

Additionally, I would like to attempt to do the process Owner/Builder with subcontracting work out as well as doing some of the work I'm comfortable with (I have some experience with bathroom & kitchen remodeling an am not new to the construction industry).

I am also really interested in the stock market and the real estate industry! 

Is anyone familiar with the rule listed in the title and is anyone that has a full-time job in another industry using this rule?

Quote from @Joy Daniels: As a short-term property manager I've seen how this industry changes so often—new guest trends, tech tools, and regulations seem to pop up all the time.
