New construction is one of the more capital intensive real estate investments.

Around Jersey City/Union City/North Bergen/Bayonne is my target geography.Fun fact: I played basketball with a Norwegian rockstar for a documentary about students in the US that played on Spanish television.

That being said, so can any other tenant, but section 8 (and I hate to sterotype), typically come from poverty and social/family circles are less educated, thus having more drama and do not posses the skill set to hanlde life situations as an adult.8) more management intensive Yes, that is why we do not operate in section 8 anymore as the resources used is simply not profitable when we can be utilizing our time to giving excellent customer service elsewhere.9) greater ware and tear on property (not a issue with a C class property) Yes.

It’s extremely labor intensive.

Podcasts and books are definitely great places to start, YouTube videos can be great as well, and for the most part definitely pass on those expensive real estate courses, they often don't provide much value and drain away capital for a down payment.Definitely a good call on getting your credit in order, I would suggest speaking with an investor-focused mortgage broker if you have not already, they can provide expertise on how to get your credit in order as fast as possible.Real estate can be quite capital intensive but there are ways to get started with very little capital such as house hacking for example, but definitely save as much as you can, especially in the beginning that can be crucial regardless of the investing strategy you end up using.

I have nothing to add to the thread except one of my favorite basketball cheers of all time is although I was a toddler Austin Peay had an All-American player named James Fly and their cheer wasFly is open...Let's go Peay

However, during the school year I would have little time or energy to spend studying real estate or doing much of anything real estate related due to the academies strict and intense schedule.

If you do a couple of searches for Holston-Wise you'll find some pretty involved/intense threads on James.

Yes, I'd probably pay a premium for the luxury of a less intense rehab, but as a novice real estate investor, I would rather err on the side of "newer" homes than early 20th century.Do you disagree or have other thoughts?

I've had properties in lower working class (but not warzones by any means) areas in the past, and managed them myself and they are so labor intensive, it would be almost impossible remotely.
