Finally, network with other investors and start small to gain experience.

Seller financing can be a fantastic way to get into a 4+ unit property, especially in a competitive market like Chicago.Have you started reaching out to owners directly or networking with agents who specialize in multifamily properties?

And yes, plenty of people use it as a self-marketing / networking tool, and why shouldn't they???

If you don't have a content deliver network to show why people should come to your rural region, you might have a much more difficult time.

Maybe you want to attend real estate conferences or join more real estate groups to expand your network.

Whether you’re a seasoned pro or just starting out like me, I’d love to network and see how we can help each other grow.Thank you, and I look forward to contributing to and learning.Best, Christian

I invested with ODC fairly recently for some of the same reasons many others have, Brandon, his positivity, energy and drive to succeed, ability to build a competent team, the network he has built, the communication and the investment structure the sponsors invested in themselves. ultimately, It is STILL our job as investors to monitor our money, ask questions and evaluate the sponsors' thru their reports. 

Networking plays a crucial role in this industry and remember to keep learning continuously.

The main advice I would recommend is to begin networking.

Network with local investors, undertake extensive due diligence, and develop a clear exit strategy.
