Had a very similar experience to you - would love to chat!

Glad you have experience investing locally. 

Additionally, I would like to attempt to do the process Owner/Builder with subcontracting work out as well as doing some of the work I'm comfortable with (I have some experience with bathroom & kitchen remodeling an am not new to the construction industry).

You don't need to know everything to get started; you need a foundation to build on, and the rest will come through experience and then refining your education.You can build a basic understanding of investing in 3-6 months.

That might include things like adding units, converting commercial space to residential, or finding ways to boost income (like adding parking).The key is recognizing opportunities while walking the property, and that takes experience.

In addition to public Service Jesse Brewer is a real estate broker with over 20 years’ experience in dealing with rental properties both as an owner / manager, but also as a broker selling them.

Thank you for the informative posts on your experiences.  

Let me know if you’d like to connect over a call or coffee and I can share my experiences or answer any of the many questions you have as you get started!

Coaching or mentorship in real estate investing can allow you to collapse time and "skip to the front of the line" by leveraging the experience and knowledge of those who have already achieved success in the industry.

Keep sharing your experience :D
