I’m relatively new to the world of real estate, having started my journey just 2 years ago.

Readers should seek professional advice.

Hi everyone,I’m looking to dive into the real estate market here in the Des Moines/Metro area and would love to connect with experienced investors, agents, or professionals who are willing to share their insights.I’m particularly interested in learning about your experiences in this market—what’s worked for you, lessons learned, and any advice you’d have for someone getting started.

You can be assertive and still be nice/professional. 

I currently have mine managed professionally.

I have no investment experience, only stock market and IRA’s, but I hope to learn a lot from professionals on this forum.

For those with limited funds, starting your journey through wholesaling, can be a smart move.

Clearly identify what you want to achieve in real estate and use that as a guiding force throughout your journey.

Congrats on taking the first steps on your investing journey.

For example how do you identify with confidence that your market attracts more professionals vs. families vs. bachelor/bachelorette parties, etc. and therefore how you'd know which amenities to offer?
