BP is a wonderful place for gaining knowledge and building your team as you start out in RE investing. 

Get Started With Invelo

If I could rewind 15 years and start over again, here are the things I would focus on:1) Buy an easy cosmetic rehab.

Where do I start?

I invest in the tristate and started out in CT.

Do you recommend starting with a long-term rental for a rookie?

To be honest am unsure where to start after buying raw commercial land.

. $1 million legit properties would all start appraising at $800k, and now if appraiser is forced to purchase it at 90% they pay $720k for a $1 million property.I think that's interesting that your appraisers don't know the value.

I have partner 50/50 with new flippers, but they put half the money into acquiring the house and repairs, and I pay the other half but I use my crew to do the flip. the other person needs to have skin in the property otherwise, I just pay them a wholesaling fee.I recommend starting by using a hard money lender, as they will take risks when someone is new, and they won't lend you the money unless they feel confident the deal is good. so you are confident you can be successful.you may pay some hight interest rates, and points, but at least you know you may make money at the end
