I rented out my first primary residence in Morrison, CO in 2018, and purchased my first true investment property in Highlands Ranch, CO in 2019. 

Not that these aren't needed but you can shop around.

I was an average real estate investor at best, but real estate led me to my true passion...maybe real estate is doing the same thing for you, but you just havent found it yet?

I currently have 3 LTR and soon will be remodeling a small family-owned shopping center in Wimberley, Texas. 

Also, many agents relist their properties there and the same property may have more than one agent and different prices.Full disclosure: I never bought a property from a site or from an agent and I am pretty new at this (with very little real world experience).Regards, RuiSo true Rui!

And since I am brand new to a lot of this I don’t know what is too good to be true.

Shopping around, I also spoke with a second lender.

The same is true for any property in the world.  

They have sent me a letter in the mail asking to buy my lot for almost double what the local values are so I'm not sure if this is a scam or just to good to be true.

If you have the time to shop around, first look at your local consignment shops, nextdoor or facebook.
