I'm not close at all to being financially ready to look at purchasing properties, but I would love to connect with fellow members of the community, especially any New England-based investors that look to invest in buy and hold properties out of state.

Then if an investor comes along, you're ready with a plan. 

We really want to make it work, but don't want to financially screw up.

Looking for input regarding the pros and cons of withdrawing from a TSP (= govt 401K) plan that is just sitting to use to purchase an investment property.

The idea is to understand how to make the financing work on my end and come up with some budget then start approaching land owners with a set plan/offer to see if any of them are willing to sell.Need some creative ideas from some experts to help me understand how I could make something like this happen.

Look at the neighborhood trends, amenities, and future development plans.

Hi Isaac,Personally, I wouldn't recommend this.You should focus on growing your portfolio as in "finding the next deal, getting access to cheap capital, finding partners, strategy planning, tax minimization, etc..."

We shall all see each other very soon in the financial freedom world.

Even if they charge you a few hundred or $1-$2K for a initial financial plan. 4) On a $5.5M portfolio, something like this would be very appealing to me personally, as a thought starter: - $1.25M home, car, and "toys", paid off- 250K in cash- $2M in stocks- $2M in paid off or lightly levered real estateThis is just me, and I'd personally view the name of the game as wealth preservation and maximizing enjoyment of life with this level of wealth, all liquid, all at once.

Full disclosure, I still use construction loans, but only on multi million dollar deals.From my experience the BRRR strategy is used by inexperienced investors with limited Capital that believe it is their path to financial freedom.
