So looking ahead, I think it would be ideal to have separate utilities.

My company fought my workers comp claim and I wasn't getting paid at all, so I went full steam ahead into real estate full time in January of 2019.

Timothy, I should have read the message I sent out thoroughly before clicking send.

The counter argument is this will take considerably more effort than clicking through a brokerage, but if you love it then it's not work.  

Thank you for your service and great job thinking ahead. 

@Rob Witt thank you but I’m not able to click on the link

I may have gotten a bit ahead of myself but I just landed my first off market deal in Kalamazoo, Michigan. 

@Joseph Miller your fears may be well founded or totally unfounded, the only way to know is to pick one, just one possible investment, bounce it off a more experienced investor and if its great, go ahead, if its a no-go, then no-go, search for the next and repeat...hard to leave the analysis paralysis phase if you have not narrowed it down to earth- to an actual possible investment property.

When I was about 21 years old I paid $4k for a online real estate investing class because of a seminar to find out a lot of their strategies weren’t even legal in Ohio I quickly got discouraged and began working then I figured that maybe I could learn some important trades (electrical, hvac, plumbing) I could get a head start to real estate investing so after 10 years I feel like I’m ready but I am nervous because it took so much hard work to save up the money I have to invest and I would hate to make a terrible decision so please if there’s anyone whose experienced in Cleveland investing please give me a better understanding I’ve read so many books but just need actual guidance Thank you Jaron Collier
