I agree with the above statements; I would join any local Facebook groups and connect with them on their experiences. 

May just be a one off experience but that was mine.  

If anyone has gone through this experience, would really appreciate your help to determine exactly what licenses, permits and tax accounts are needed to be in compliance.Thanks so much! 

They have little to no experience!

Even though we live in earthquake country, this was a new experience for us.

Right now, I’m considering a few areas:Fredericksburg, VARichmond, VAOxon Hill, MDGermantown, MDFor those of you who have experience investing in any of these spots, what’s the vibe like?

.- Working a W2 as a firefighter, posting and consuming content- Leaving my W2 to dive deep into real estate investing and working as an agent... and still watching/posting content all while business was ok - Deleting social media apps (one have one on my phone that I use 10 minutes or less a day), diving deep into building my business and skills which have drastically increased due to pure focus and increasing my business significantly- moral of the story... focus on the things you need to do in business (dollar productive activities) and life experiences while reducing consumption will increase your success  

From my experience working with over 400 investors, starting early gives you a huge advantage in building long-term wealth.

I have seen REI Hub recommended on here, but I am unsure of their ability to work with local banks, so if anyone has any experience they can speak of that would be greatly appreciated.
