In today’s fast moving, social media driven business world, your overall brand presence and awareness is crucial to your success, growth, and expansion.

Unless it's a brand new house I highly suggest having an extra 5-10k to fix things that break. 

I am brand new to real estate investing and right now I’m in the process of learning as much as I can.

However, it doesn't hurt to ask local professionals if there is anything you can help them with.If you're social media savvy or have photography/videography experience, there could be a way for you to help local professionals (i.e. realtors, loan officers) build their brands while you simultaneously pick their brain. 

I’ve noticed a lot of brand new investors looking for advice on how to use other people’s money to complete their first deal.

BRAND NEW! 

I also found a home builder where I can buy brand new 3/2 homes for $145-$155K in the same general area of the city.What are opinions on buying a new home rental vs. slightly older flip home? 

RULE #2 Invest in your business, marketing, branding, people, collaborations.. 

Of course it works-  in my opinion building brand is the best part.

@Brian DownsI’m brand new myself, so I don’t own any properties at this time.
