Quote from @Adolfo Herrera: I recently bought a piece of land(cash) in my hometown in Texas and I am looking to start building a home to sell.The lot sits in a new neighborhood and is in the more affordable side of the Rio Grande Valley.

Louisville is fantastic for cash flow and is a safe place to start since we don't typically get caught up in the roller coaster effect of steep appreciation followed by sudden pull backs when the market isn't red hot.  

Being willing to live in a property that needs work is a big plus for someone just starting out who has the insight not to bite off more than they can chew.

Quote from @Qais Attarwala: Hi everyone, Just wanted to start out by saying thank you to everyone in this really supportive community.

From the time I started the initial consultation, Tommy was very helpful to provide all the information I needed to have before making my decision to go forward with the rental property.

Louis area and ready to get started.

You can start building out a team(GC, Agent, etc) to start analyzing numbers.

Any tips for a newbie getting started it this?

Theres one I think its by Brandon Turner that is called rent to retirement. when I was starting out I read one that was called one property a year that resonated with me.

It's no guarantee but it's a good place to start.
