It's great to see your detailed plan for investing.

@Brock Mogensen, starting close to home in the greater Sacramento, CA area sounds like a solid plan for me.

I plan to work on this project myself and need some assistance in selecting the right type of flooring and approach for the bathroom.

How do I put together a business plan for this?

I'm planning to getting my feet wet with an actual investment, specifically in the LTR space in Philly -- where I'm currently based. 

Are you planning to invest locally or are you open to investing out-of-state?

Can't wait to see you grow.If you're planning to invest out-of-state, I recommend reading “Long-Distance Real Estate Investing: How to Buy, Rehab, and Manage Out-of-State Rental Properties” - I found it to be very helpful when I got started investing 2.5 years ago.

.: My partner and I have just started a house flipping business and plan to use local workers whom we trust and who have done remodels on investment properties for us before.

I plan on living on 25% of that and using the additional 75% to invest.

I was planning to use my 0 down VA loan on a new primary residence.
