Hey guys, I've been getting educated about purchasing apartments for several months now and I while I recognize I'm at a point where I have a lot to learn and I don't know what I don't know I believe I found an opportunity worth pursuing and I don't want to miss out because of fear/inexperience.Here's building- It's a 51 unit in a rural area (45 min drive from Philly/Conshohocken) with low crime/unemployment.

I will continue to read, watch, and listen to everything REI I can get my hands on.

So I’ve been educating myself on real estate investing and I’m planning to get started with wholesaling.

There are abandoned warehouses nearby and there is a plan already to turn one into a brewery, so I think the value of the area will continue to increase over the next few years. 

Before hiring a property manager, you should educate yourself on what a good one looks like vs. a bad one.

I've heard multiple times on podcasts, people that speak of large value from continued education, conferences, seminars, etc...

Later down the road, if you choose to get married and have/adopt kids, you can move into a house and now you have a multi-family property on the side that will continue to make you money.

As we grow we will continue to build a team that we can outsource these tasks to.

That being said, no, this is by no means the typical experience and you should take everything that happened and use it as motivation to get educated.

I am currently in the construction industry  and have been for the past 5 years and my educational background is in Architecture.
