You’re in the right place to learn and grow.

I have been using comps from the MLS but as the company grows, I dont have that advantage in other states.

But all of the A/B class areas or rapidly growing cities do not have much at all, and when they hit they get bid up.

It'll take some time but I see Anthem and all around the plant growing significantly over the coming years, small multifam and sfh's may be a good buy up around there.

However, some investors are fine with this strategy if they prefer to minimize their upfront investment and plan to refinance in a few years, especially with potential interest rate cuts from the Fed this year.At the end of the day, it’s all about investing in a growing market, selecting a solid neighborhood, and building a strong team to support you.

I could probably rent the house as-is but I would hate for it to be an issue if there was ever a fire or something drastic.

I am now 29 and wanting to grow at a faster rate- and also ensure that I am making smart moves, rather than just grasping at whatever a bank will give me.

I cant speak for every deal they have ever done, but I will say that any deals That I was involved in with safeguard and there was any issue whatsoever they jumped in and worked diligently to solve the issue as if it was there own money. 

You may also want to look into 2-4 units as those are the easiest to finance and help you grow faster.

Nor have I ever heard of you, ever.
