If you’re currently living in a bad school district and want your kids in a better school district or some other safety / life choice, you may need to compete in this market.

The time and energy and money and resources you use to buy a BRRRR primary home you can find 2 properties to buy.I would suggest exploring...at least EXPLORE it first...buying a primary home with a normal loan, ask about "first time home buyer" programs, and if you do find a good property then BRRRR that one separately.  

I am 29, have been exploring investing for over a year now.

I'm thinking of college kids, but not sure. 

As I explore my core 4 and look into different markets I am contemplating on a couple different places where the entry level is more do able to compound a strategy, and implement the notorious BRRR.

anyway, so a little about me: i'm going to be 50 yo at the end of this year, single, and no kids.

This is not without issues (the biggest of which is getting more funds into the IRA/LLC after future contributions), but it is worth exploring if it might be a good fit for you.On the other hand, if you are not looking for as much control, I have a great deal of respect for Quest Trust Company and it's owner Quincy Long.  

Some properties can go up that much in a year or two just with the crazy market now.Neither step was hard for me  But when I was going through them I  was single, had not adopted kids yet, and working 12 hour shifts 6 days a week and 8 hours on Sunday. 

We are currently exploring strategies from single family homes, multi families to even BRRRing.

Augustine but have explored the JAX area.
