Are you looking to do long-term buy and hold or want to start with generating capital like wholesaling or fix and flip? 

However, it won’t generate rental income like a duplex or multi-family property.

I have two friends who own rental properties and they are successful with their properties, I read Rich Dad Poor Dad twice along with Rental Property Investing and Power of Habit, I've been told by multiple people apart of the Baby Boomer and Generation X that they wish they invested in Real Estate at my age, I was a Resident Advisor at my University and I enjoyed that role so some of the skills are transferrable, and lastly this is the best time for me to take a risk.

@Greg GarzaOver the past three years, I’ve been using most of the major off-market techniques.One standout method has always been pulling data and feeding it into a call center to generate off-market leads.

Condos are sometimes not the best long term wealth generators depending on the location.I am assuming you went with a condo because it is what you could afford in the neighborhood where you want to live. 

@Nick Burrell recommend you start looking for "deals" that you can sell to other investors.This will force you to learn how to find them AND evaluate them.You'll generate commissions you can accumulate to start flipping.

Hey James, the most important part of investing from a distance is building and improving reliable systems, generating deal flow, and building a rock solid team.Read this article on the "core 4".

That sounds amazing, I hope your investments generate massive value!  

Rehab projects are great and they give you the option to sell and move on after completing or to hold the property as long-term rental to generate some extra income.

Short-term rentals (STRs) in San Antonio offer both advantages and challenges, especially in light of recent regulations.Pros:Increased Income Potential: STRs often generate higher rental income compared to long-term leases, as they charge daily or weekly rates.
