I'm going to be looking to get my realty license primarily to benefit my own investing ventures rather than actively looking to take on clients as a stream of income.

New investors, and all investors for that matter, should be saving at least 10% of all their income for this purpose.

I'm hesitant to quit my current job and rely solely on real estate investment for income. 

Hello BiggerPockets community,I am a new Real Estate Investor and would love to get some feedback on our strategy.Goal: Achieve sustainable income of net $10K/month, while the properties appreciate long term.

Since Florida has no income taxes...

Unclear who “middle class” is but it’s usually defined in the past as sub-$250k income.

You are better off budgeting money for maintenance and capital expenses and keeping a reserve in case issues arise faster than your budgeted money gets socked away from incoming rents.

Of course we love our income tax break in Washington and lean towards remaining in our primary residency to benefit from it but the constant driving back and forth is challenging.

Hi All,I currently have a W2 income and bought a STR.

At FlipSystem, most of our students start off by falling between those two categories: they want to be more than passive investors, but they do not have the knowledge or skillset to rely solely on real estate investing as their only source of income.
