I am currently in my first year of my W2 job (post graduation), and after a year of listening to Bigger Pockets, getting my real estate license, and allocating funds, I have finally decided to dive head first into my first investment.

@Glen Wiley Not yet, I have scheduled meetings with both.

No prior experience investing experience, have always just worked a regular w-2 job as a welder.

I've been working with an accountant for a couple years but when we purchased our first investment property, it became clear that he's not the guy for the job.

These are the properties we see investors have the most success with (some quitting their day jobs from the cash flow).Purchase: $80k-$130kRent: $1200-$1500ROI: 10-14%Cash flow: $250-$350/doorAppreciation: Double digit (for past 10 years, will gladly send data)Location: C+, B- (suburbs and certain markets)We have over a dozen Fortune 500 companies just in Metro Detroit with huge Healthcare, Auto, mortgage, Amazon fulfillment, and more jobs.The bad reputation comes from OOS investors wanting $20k D market properties where the condition isn't what it appeared to be and/or the tenants never pay rent.

For my W2 job I travel quite frequently across the country and would love to connect with anyone here - I'm looking into either BRRRR & multifamily investing to start!

I've heard of mentees who started cleaning up construction areas on a flip at the end of each work day or picking up supplies at Home Depot and delivering them to the job site.

(Heck, an hour of consulting on how to self-manage costs less than you'd pay a management company in the first month.)It's not like STRs where turnover is every few days, where cleaners need scheduling all the time, etc.

Nevada is landlord friendly, low property taxes, and strong job and population growth.
