The key is building a big enough portfolio that one property won't affect you no matter what happens to it.

I believe the play is to either improve the existing building and raise rents or the zoning allows for apartment buildings and the lot is considerably big, so maybe build new.

, or single-family home (open to finding one that needs to be rehabbed to build sweat equity).

It allows you to ease into being a landlord, gain experience managing tenants, do repairs and property maintenance without the pressure of a tight flip timeline and while you're getting comfortable as a landlord, you can gradually build your real estate team.

The appealing aspect here is the ongoing population growth and other economic factors.

Hi all,I'm stuck and I don't know where to start or how to strategize a game plan on how to build my portfolio.

Downpayment will also be a huge factor.
