So ya-see Jimmy, that's how we have a FACT-BASED conversation on "I can land 1%+ deals no problem"........

When foreclosures dried up, we went after short sales and when those dried up we started to focus on properties with mold or foundation issues and learned how to fix those and when that started to become too difficult and the rehab was not worth it anymore I had to pivot again and we buy properties in good shape that fell through with another buyer.

I found a seller who is motivated to sell his property at a pretty steep discount.My plan is to put the property in escrow on an executory contract/land contract with the condition that the title will transfer once the seller receives his funds.

Land already acquired and we're breaking ground in the Spring.

Nothing in land lording is written in stone .

Hindsight is 20/20, and my education (courtesy of the school of hard knocks called Life) has shaped my approach to real estate investing and how I help others achieve their goals.Since 2021, I’ve been working full-time in real estate, specializing in assisting both local and out-of-state investors in acquiring small multi-family properties and short-term rentals.I would love to meet up with you and further discuss your REI interests and goals.

Here’s what I’ve seen work well:Furniture Purchase:If the furniture fits the vibe you’re going for and is in good shape, buying it can definitely help you hit the ground running.

Hi Jonathan,I set up my SDIRA years ago for the purpose of purchasing notes and have since used it for lending and doing land trust investments.

You have a very nicely thought out plan and once you get the CORE 4 you are in great shape!! 

My 2 cents: You're young, you could get a real estate or real estate adjacent 9-5 so you can get paid to to learn more about real estate while learning and building the side hustle outside of business hours.Seems like you live in a major US market so that's a plus, you could get a tenant services coordinator job in commercial real estate making $40-60k (not sure if that's more or less than what you are making now) It's an Entry level role, anyone with a degree and a polished resume and a passion for real estate should have a decent shot at landing a job like this.
