Welcome to BiggerPockets Michael and best of luck investing!

I've been interested in real estate investing for quite sometime and decided to get my license while I wait for my main gig to get going again.

(My HELOC is at 3.5% and I won’t consider it as not worth risk - I don’t leverage my home for investments unless it’s buy all cash and then refinance to get that $ back)

Investment Info:Single-family residence buy & hold investment.

I don't think you need one before you start buying investment real estate, but as soon as you do, you're absolutely going to want one who specifically has a real estate background.

Have the opportunity to purchase 64 homes, all have renters, book of business is very profitable. 90% of the properties have new roofs. There is a full time caretaker hired for 35K a year. Comes with lawn care equipme...

On the other hand, if you want something simpler or closer to home, a single-family home might work better.Since you need more space for your growing family, consider looking for properties that offer both extra room and good investment potential.
