Are you going to be living in the property?

To get into real estate investing at a young age with strong credit, think about plans like living in one part while renting the rest, making friends in the field, beginning with bite-sized properties, using savings and credit well, and eyeing areas that might grow.

Hi BP communityI am a Filipino citizen living in the US.

Get out of your comfort zone.

I live here now but likely won’t in about 2 years.

As I go through this journey I have also decided to educate myself in real estate investment so that I can be best prepared for July 2020, this is the point when I will be debt-free and will be shifting all my energy to actively investing in real estate utilizing the BRRR method.To that end, I have made it a goal to analyze 2 properties per day so I can become familiar with my area and become comfortable analyzing properties...and that is where my issue is.

I’ll tell my story though. 2019 I was living check to check pretty much.

It's comfortable, and it also has storage.

If the individual defaults, how will you go after their cosigner when they live in another country?

I rented out 3 of the bedrooms (upstairs) and lived in the basement which had 2 of the bedrooms, a master bathroom, living room, and private garage access.
