I strongly suggest giving a quick peak into the Detroit , Michigan market. 

If this is the home you're going to live in -- then I'd suggest you start with where YOU want to live first.

...RE, on the other hand, is comparatively simple to me--I can wrap my mind around what makes a property valuable, what factors affect the market, the advantages/disadvantages of various RE investment strategies, etc.Don't get me wrong--I'm not trying to knock crypto.  

The same for flips, the learning curve is steep and a simple mistake can set you back or take you out of the game altogether.

That much will cost them probably $25,000 in legal fees in a simple case.

Any suggestions?

I'd suggest not even trusting what is on their website.

The only benefit is with simple repairs like motors and other parts. they will cover 100% of that.  

Seeking help/advice for what the title suggest.

I am trying to weigh all of my options, any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated for beginning my real estate investment path!
