In the end, you have 2 choices when there is a change, blame the system or find a way to win the game.

Person new to real estate trying to get in the “game” with little or no capital and trying creatively.  

The fact of the matter is that real estate is a long game and expenses will come up. 

I have personally advertised in Realty 411 its a real publication and as I stated  Linda I have know for over a decade personally and I am real I have 50 years in the real estate game..

I may have to start smaller and that's ok too, at least I'll be in the game.

I recently came across a piece in Forbes talking about how quickly rental dynamics can evolve when population growth spikes.I’m based in Phoenix and have been in the real estate game for three decades, and a close friend of mine recently reminded me how the right connections can shape your entire strategy.

I'm pretty new to the game and would love to get some advice from more experienced investors here!

Nothing wrong with being a bit new - there are options out there for all stages of the game. 

Should I re evaluate what strategy I should use and maybe look further out in places such as Rochester and BRRR properties out thereHey @Jared Leggett, I know I'm jumping in here late in the game, and I have to admit that I haven't read all the many comments you've gotten, but I wanted to provide what I imagine and glean is a contrary view.It is easy to dunk on NYC for young investors starting out, but if you are a first time homebuyer you can buy a $1M property with $35k down (+ closing costs which can be avoided with seller's concessions).

Don't hate the playa, hate the game.
