Tell me about your first real estate deal how did you find it ?

I dont think first time buyers usually even know that after owing the home and living in it for 2 years any profit up to 250k for single and 500k for married is tax FREE. the absolute best tax treatment we have in the US. in Markets that dont move as much might not be the same benefit..

Yes, to the first part, income today and building long-term wealth in the future. 

But we've been in it for a long time.99.9% of email newsletters are absolute garbage so I would suggest they hurt new agents more than help because they are so bad and they literally add everyone to their list.Cold calling and door knocking is out.

I've looked into investing in real estate for quite some time.

Hi,I’m looking to invest for the first time in the US (Philly) as a real estate investor.

First-time investors should start with their goals, get pre-approved, network with locals, and maximize learning in forums by asking questions, searching for similar markets, and engaging with members.

We review their deals for our portfolio first and share the rest with clients on a case-by-case basis. 

The houses are not meant to be lived in full time. 

The most important thing is to set boundaries with your tenants so they are not knocking on your door every time they have a question.
