So if I can do it anyone can I had really zero experience .

Not easy but well worth it

We usually do any touch-up paint while we are there also.

Being new I would suggest started with existing builds but building small multifamily in a small town with a rental shortage could be a smart move (someone's gotta do it).

If you sell it, you get $250k single / $500k married exemptions from capital gains.Speak with a tax professional about how much you'll save in taxes by doing this. 

Maybe you can do it better than them?

I would ask, when you say real estate, specifically what are you trying to accomplish or do?

There is a way to do it.

This will put me at cash flow neutral and I'll let appreciation and long term rent appreciation do it's work.

The issues really happen when it's just R.E. agents begging for some $, pitching "I can do that too" and in reality there in breach of NAR codes because they don't have proficiency and expertise in it what so ever.
