I recently came across a piece in Forbes talking about how quickly rental dynamics can evolve when population growth spikes.I’m based in Phoenix and have been in the real estate game for three decades, and a close friend of mine recently reminded me how the right connections can shape your entire strategy.

Nothing wrong with being a bit new - there are options out there for all stages of the game. 

You’re already ahead of the game—stick with Central Florida, and you’ll crush it!

I'm pretty new to the game and would love to get some advice from more experienced investors here!

But if your a W 2 and real estate is how you are planning on retiring by investing that is a completely different lifestyle and motivation and game plan. 

Should I re evaluate what strategy I should use and maybe look further out in places such as Rochester and BRRR properties out thereHey @Jared Leggett, I know I'm jumping in here late in the game, and I have to admit that I haven't read all the many comments you've gotten, but I wanted to provide what I imagine and glean is a contrary view.It is easy to dunk on NYC for young investors starting out, but if you are a first time homebuyer you can buy a $1M property with $35k down (+ closing costs which can be avoided with seller's concessions).

I don't think I need to have that exactly figured out on day 1 of my first rental purchase, I need to get into the game. 

Nobody will come to your aid, and it truly isnt even worth complaining because honestly this is a game where all that counts is the money.

Hi All, I am very new to the Real Estate investing game and haven't pulled the trigger on any properties yet.

My mother is very interested in learning more about the power of real estate and how she can get in the game.
