Lots of great info on here as well, and like they're saying the best thing to do is to find an experience broker / realtor who can help you navigate which neighborhoods to target and which ones to stay away from, as well helping you to build out your team for property managers, lenders, inspectors, contractors, ect.

@Michelle Wang, I completely understand your frustration, and I want to say that you are not alone in this experience.

Critical Questions to Ask a GC To ensure you hire the right GC and avoid delays or cost overruns, ask: • Experience & Licensing: • Are you licensed and insured?

This required no experience.

I already have the knowledge, experience, and systems in place to do about 20 properties this year.

You don't need to know everything to get started; you need a foundation to build on, and the rest will come through experience and then refining your education.You can build a basic understanding of investing in 3-6 months.

It also gave me the chance to experiment with short-term rentals before transitioning to a long-term hold, reinforcing my strategy for growing a real estate portfolio.

New agents can often compensate for lack of experience with enthusiasm, professionalism, hard work, or even their good looks.

Also just look online and steal some ideas...I used to Google Luxury Kitchens and then figure out how to do the same for less $$.You'll be fine with your experience.

Experience in the last 3 years: 9.
