I've seen people buy so many units that they burn out trying to juggle maintenance, tenants, turnovers, etc.

Focus on networking and learning from experienced investors—you're already ahead of 99% of people your age, so stay consistent and take action!

I’m a business owner and aspiring real estate investor looking to learn, grow, and connect with like-minded people.

The business seems to be doing well so wondering why it seems like people are trying to get rid of them?

I've actually started talking to some people on here who are local, reaching out to my network, and I have an incredible realtor wholeheartedly helped me close on my house three years ago that is bringing me in to her group, Buy Maryland.

A majority of people who rent homes here have 100% equity in them so any rent will cash flow. 

Many people are hoping mortgage rates will come down before they buy a home.

Be prepared to be flexible.A couple of websites I like:howmoneywalks.com: Using IRS data you can see where people are moving to and from.Zillow Rental Market Stats: Gives you an idea of how rents have been trending in a certain area.Something to keep in mind: If you are putting a low down payment and expect the numbers to work, they likely won't in the beginning.

I’m especially interested in value-add opportunities where I can renovate and increase equity.I’m here to learn from experienced investors, connect with like-minded people, and share my journey along the way.

You can gauge this risk by checking state average homeowners insurance rates.Few people live in cities that meet all the above requirements.
