Quote from @Drew Mullin: I have some experience in the south Florida area.

@Jonathan LudizacaFrom a lender's perspective, starting in 1-4 units gives you experience and many more lenders will be open to first time flippers in this space versus multifamily. 

As a beginner investor based in the Seattle metro area, I'm eager to learn from your experiences and share my journey as I get started in this field.My current strategy is to focus on live-and-flip for the first three deals (looking for my second deal) to gain hands-on experience while building equity and learning the ins and outs of renovation and the local market. 

However, after you get some experience, you probably want to get a Private Lender since this will allow you to keep the majority of the profits.

These groups are goldmines for finding mentors, reliable vendors, and other investors to learn from.Property ManagementChoosing the right property management company can make or break your experience.

If so how was your experience?

Do you have experience at new construction or rehabbing?

@James SillsFrom my experience working with investors, transitioning from residential to commercial real estate (CRE) is an exciting and achievable goal with the right foundation.

It’s clear that there’s an incredible wealth of knowledge and experience here, and I’m excited to continue learning and growing with this community.I’m looking to connect with members who are open to mentoring or collaborating on real estate deals, particularly in buy-and-hold strategies for single-family or multi-family properties.

I didn't end up doing the course but I had a very different selling experience from Wendy.
