This coming year set the goal of getting more committed to learn and expand my knowledge to avoid previous mistakes taken as well as to be able to effectively continue to expand my portfolio.I’m here to connect with others who are also passionate about real estate, and I’m eager to learn from your experiences, insights, and advice.

But I could easily make this a 3 bed, 2 bath within the existing sq ft. 

It’s a gem for insights into running and expanding a business.

I found what seemed to be a great property with a house for an STR and other space that I could expand for camping/RV sites and a barn that could be converted into a venue for events. 

from my advice rural properties and developments aren't successful and you are climbing an uphill battle. sounds a little niche. we focus on developing and not reinventing the wheel. if this is truly what you want to focus all your time and energy on then visit the closest 5-10 of these that look like the ones you are interested and ask if they'd expand or build a secondary one. do a lot of research before you just take action 

This is the fork where I'm not sure if I'd be good to get some CRE exp and invest in learning about how to review deals for the next 2-3 years, or focus on generating revenue for investment purposes and watch how things are done as a LP.My personality more aligns with networking, reaching out to people, connecting, navigating difficult situations and finding solutions that work.

I manage properties remotely and can handle all the leasing/management pretty easily with my team.

This is an unrealistic scenario because you cannot easily find someone to give you 95% financing on four properties. 

I’m looking to expand my portfolio more quickly and am particularly interested in trying seller financing as a strategy.

I've been wanting to expand out of my market in Iowa, and see that the Winter Haven, Lakeland, Haines City areas are similar to purchase points as my market.
