Each one offers its own set of opportunities for appreciation and cash flow.

My goal is to try and get a multifamily property a month or two after starting my job once I have the paychecks rolling in, to show my financial advisor.

What are your goals for 2025 in real estate?

In light of this, I have been exploring the possibility of pursuing creative finance options, specifically seller finance deals, as a potential means to achieve my goals.

I find it's very personal, and dependent a lot on your goals, resources, risk tolerance, location, experience, etc.

My issue with your specific post is that it sets up a strawman and takes a personal shot at other posters.

I’d love to connect & discuss my goals further, especially since you specialize in long-term, turn-key properties, which are exactly what I will be focusing on as an investor.I’ll definitely check out the podcast you shared to learn more about turn-key investments.

My goal is fix and flip but I need to raise capital for the initial investment. 

Also keep in mind when I started funding investment rentals in 2002 for CA investors 100.00 a month cash flow was the goal and accepted.. and even break even or a little negative was fully acceptable in markets with historic appreciation..

Sure, I wo't have the same financing options, but I might be able to work with hard lenders, or perhaps eventually set up a LLC and maybe that will open up some other financing avenues.
