Real Estate Rockstars podcast on Feb 24th covers this issue well.

@Chad Rocke thank you sir

Since the cost of construction has sky rocked building in small towns are proving to be a challenge, mind set is, I move to a small-town thing should be cheaper, I even got this one “I’m not paying that to live in that town” sooooo, having issues with cost.Another reason, there is a HUGH under served market out there, affordable housing, I’m trying and looking at ever option I can to figure out away, including and not limited to modular and manufactured Let’s start with Modular, I’ve called several plants across this great country and explained my thoughts, surprising everyone I called was more then happy to spill the beans, meaning more then willing to talk about process, cost and even offer tours at any time, very friendly folks.

It start in 2018 when I read Rich dad poor dad, I have always think about housing as the way to go , and that the 9-5 and retirement wasn't it, after that book I just star reading more and more books about mindset , money, finances, etc.I'm currently fixing my first house to put in back in the market to rent it, I would love to connect with people who are in the same page as me , to learn and growth. 

The goal of this post is to give a first time investor a road to follow with PLENTY of details, so let's take it one step at a time, starting with...The HuntOriginal Criteria (can be found in my first post on BP):area with decent schools, B- or better neighborhoodaround $200k purchase price2+ bathroomssomething that could cash flow after moving out if I were to rent to a single tenantFrom that first post about my criteria, I found a rockstar real estate agent Harrison.

It is a brand new rental and you need to build up a reputation with 5 star reviews.Also, John said, is it furnished or do you need to fill it up?

He is not the cheapest, but I have come to value professionalism over rock bottom prices.  

@Chad Rocke thank you so much !

@Chad Rocke - when you mention local meet ups - is there a forum here BP meet ups, or do you just mean local REI meet ups?
