Bigger Pockets has been giving me knowledge and encouragement to take actionable steps and I can not wait to post my first deal.If you're reading this post, thank you for taking the time to do so.

Greensboro also recently approved some new ADU friendly zoning rules to encourage denser housing.

For some people they take the motivation and it helps them Have a greater drive and encourage.

These are great and I encourage you to try and find these people. 

In you are wanting a high level of service on both your buy and sell I'd encourage you to look the boutique route. 

@Elias Azo, I suppose I'm a biased real estate agent, so take everything I say with a grain of salt; however, I would highly encourage you to pursue/accomplish your first house hack during Q4 or by the end of this year.

Definitely encourage you to practice analyzing a few properties using the “Deal Finder” at the top of your screen, and the Calculators (Under “Analyze Deals). 

@Leo CuomoRecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

I always encourage them to house hack, or at the very least move into the property they're buying if it's SFH to get a lower interest rate and lower down payment. 9 times out of 10 I get the response of "I can't do that for X Y Z reason" Which always can be boiled down to some version of "I like my current lifestyle, I don't want to change my status quo." 

With exception of one mentor who I greatly admire and respect, I have spent 1000's over the years on RE courses collectively and not experienced this kind of support, encouragement or expertise without having to pay quite a bit for it.
