Do you want to trade up at some point and buy a larger multifamily.

California especially given it is an appreciation market and the market can swing in either direction.

@David Gauger Also in Cape Coral as well, but in my experience here, AirDNA fails to capture the market swings that we see between on and off season pricing.

I am currently a commercial plumber and have been in the business/ trade for four and half years.

It took me a number of months but I eventually found a few underwriters who agreed to trade a bit of their wisdom for an hourly rate.I offer 1-on-1 guidance not because I plan to get rich (I didn’t take a gigantic leap into full-time investing only to give myself another day job)… but because it’s something I wish I had.

I read Eric Martel's, Stop Trading Your Time for Money, and became interested in real estate.

If you're going to college or trade school all of your funds should be going towards that. 

First I should ask if you're a general or trade specific contractor. 

You can also look at private non-traded real estate like BREIT from Blackstone.

We will have a CPA and a bookkkeeper sponsoring at the MAREI Trade show next week and I'm willing to bet several more will be in attendance.
