You came to the right place to learn more about real estate and connect with other motivated investors.

On top of that we are staying current with local/regional/national trends and data, as well as always working on working on making our business more efficient and effective. 

There are plenty of resources on this blog to get started like the Ultimate Real Estate Investing Guide and this article about the BRRR method.You'll want to get a sense of what your motivation for this is; a desire to invest in real estate is a great first step that plenty have, but follow through falls short once people realize they actually need an executable plan.

This is so motivating, I think I'm on the same track.I have a W2 job and I invest with my cousin who owns a business.

I realize the holding costs will be greater with a longer rehab period, but I assume it will be hard to rent up units while conducting major rehab work, while also reducing the efficiency of contractors ability to complete jobs in fell swoops...Thank you all in advance!

Photos and description on listing, assessor card, past listings + listing history (Hotpads, Zillow), tax bill combined can say a lot about the rehab numbers, problems with the prop, and seller motivations. 

How would you guys go about this for someone extremely motivated to succeed, with no track record or portfolio.

It sounds like you need to get some more in-depth education, but I'll give some free information to get started: You need to market to find motivated sellers.Good luck.

With that being said I wanted to walk you through my home purchase and the process and hopefully motivate others to do the same!
