Can't wait to grow/ learn!!

I want to grow beyond covering all my bills and having a little spending money.

I understand that this team will grow organically with time, diligence, perseverance and creative thinking :) Thanks everyone for reaching the end of this post! 

:Should I 1) sell now, reinvest and get a better cash flow immediately (after a break even investment over 18 months); 2) hold off until I can sell for atleast some profit, or 3) Sit and wait (buy & hold)...and assume/hope appreciation will come though in a growing market near Austin (keeps some diversification as well)Id like you hear some feedback.

What I’m trying to say from all this is that the market is a little frothy right now and you should probably buy for current fundamentals in case the market goes down. 10 years might turn into 20 if you don’t buy something that makes sense today.Feel free to private message me and ask more questions.I am hoping to get something more than just a Bread and Butter property, you can even get better caps in Compton or South LA, but not sure if I want to be in a slow growing area. 

@Will Glaeser  I think it would be easiest to build experience and a track record of success in Area A and then transfer the experience and track to Area B to continue to grow your business. 

-In my experience, US neighborhoods grow or die with little in between.

While I've always had good credit, I found it was far easier to grow my own debt-carrying ability by growing my income than it was to try to build a business line of credit.

Things could grow quickly out of control. and, it's not really 9 units at $80K.

Working for someone else and in the rat race...Growing up I’ve always wanted to be an entrepreneur and the more I’ve learned about real estate through books, classes, and podcast I think real estate is the is the direction I’d like to go with my entrepreneurial mind.
