This could take years, but you're young yet :)Good luck - I think if you spend more time on BP and you get a good plan, you have actually "accidentally" stumbled onto your future retirement plan!

I just know I will.I stumbled across this website and glad I did.

Great job on stumbling into the crazy world of financing.

I have never done a package deal and then to have two different individuals owning the properties on top of that just kind of threw me and I want to make sure I dont stumble into something.

Signup last week after stumbling upon BP.. been reading great articles and posts here..

I want my first property to be my primary residence for a few years as well The problem I have come across us that in the D.C/MD/northern VA area a lot of these properties are well north of 500kThe ones that aren't are are in not so great neighborhoods (Trinidad/anacostia/Minnesota ave) etc, and at least according to the reviews from Redfin agents will require at least some rehab I'm sure there are gems in the area that I haven't stumbled upon yet but my question would be should i possibly look into another niche/strategy for this area with a lower cost of entry

Not just for your own education, but for people who might stumble across this post in the future looking to learn something.

Hi everyone,I'm really excited to have stumbled upon such a valuable resource.

I stumbled upon bigger pockets and love the concepts they were conveying, not trying to sell the get rich quick scheme but rather solidifying the principal of long term growth.  

Never stumbled across them before.
