I appreciate the encouragement.

I would encourage you to read the City’s development plans and population statistics.

BTW,  I would encourage you to open your criteria to distressed properties, tax liens, probate, divorce, etc..if you don't want to compete in the competitive market.   

Bigger Pockets has been giving me knowledge and encouragement to take actionable steps and I can not wait to post my first deal.If you're reading this post, thank you for taking the time to do so.

It's a tough market right now, this thread is to encourage those who might be going through a rough time in their business.

These are great and I encourage you to try and find these people. 

Greensboro also recently approved some new ADU friendly zoning rules to encourage denser housing.

In you are wanting a high level of service on both your buy and sell I'd encourage you to look the boutique route. 

@Elias Azo, I suppose I'm a biased real estate agent, so take everything I say with a grain of salt; however, I would highly encourage you to pursue/accomplish your first house hack during Q4 or by the end of this year.

I always encourage them to house hack, or at the very least move into the property they're buying if it's SFH to get a lower interest rate and lower down payment. 9 times out of 10 I get the response of "I can't do that for X Y Z reason" Which always can be boiled down to some version of "I like my current lifestyle, I don't want to change my status quo."
