Hi there, I'm just getting started and looking to learn more.

If you invest the $25,000 in real estate, well even if you totally mess it up and buy a really bad deal, you'll still learn a lot, and what if you loose $5000-$10,000-$12,500....you still have 1/2 your money left or more.   

Eager to learn.

From your other comments, it sounds like you're more interested in learning the underwriting than actually buying this deal.

We are all different due to life experiences, skills we have learned, and our individual strengths and weaknesses.  

I would suggest you learn how to manage it yourself for at least a year or two before turning it over to property management. 

I came into this being a learning experience for me and it most certainly has not disappointed in that regard.

I'm not experienced in this particular form of real estate investing / marketing, but I can share with you what I've learned through podcasts and general sales experience, as well as share my opinion on your current marketing tactics.1.

You're in the right place to learn about real estate investing.

The downsides can include high minimum investments ($50K+) and just learning how to vet syndicators, but you can knock out both by joining a real estate investment club.
