Thank you It does not matter where you start as long as you develop your Core 4.

I asked him about it and he said he didn’t do that.So I started looking at DSCR loans for this property in TN. 

Or will hiring a PM and reno team be a more realistic avenue for you (especially if you are looking for an area outside of where you are where the RE market may be hotter)After you find the answers to theses questions, I'd hunt down a great agent in your desired area and start searching! 

So my suggestion if starting with a flip is to find one that needs simple things… paint, flooring, appliances, landscaping, and such.  

Hi, My name is Ahmed Aboelela and I'm a just getting started in the real-estate game.How do you build up enough capital to buy a rental property?

Of course like I said I am not in the note space Chris and @Jamie Bateman will have better answers but the things I mentioned jump out at me. 

I am a real estate agent in the Columbia,SC market, but I actually starting investing 2 years prior first.

I would recommend contacting your local government and requesting a list of properties with back taxes, then start analyzing the areas where you think you can add value.

I've finally decided to start my journey after listening to Biggerpockets podcasts.

You should also start networking directly with companies in your area and letting them know that you’re a temporary housing provider.
