Please keep in mind that this is an abbreviated story and in no way could ever represent the amount of adversity that I experienced through this process or the effort that was required.Looking back, I am amazed with power of real estate and have found a true passion, like nothing I ever experienced in my job and I wish anyone on a similar trajectory to push as hard as you can.

I would greatly appreciate some insight on the actual process of what happens after you are interested in a property, as well as how to get my toes into the Sands of learning my area.Thank you in advance for the advice and wisdom.Best,-Vince

Thanks Account Closed where are you at in the process?

Remember to leave emotion out of it and think "Future Rental".

My idea of getting into real estate investing was coming up with 20% of your own money (that's 60k where I live for a low end property), traditional residential mortgage, net maybe $200 a month if I was lucky and repeat the process when I came up with another 20% until I had maybe 40 properties.

Along with a check list and a timeline for the process.

In our area, they are processed through local JP (Justice of the Peace) courts. 

Trey, I think that I would enjoy owning and operating rentals at this point, but I haven't completed a deal.I want to learn how to analyze properties and spot deals; I'm in the beginning processes for sure.  

If necessary, I would potentially use any other income sources to speed up, stay on target or address pain points.I'm suggesting a 10 year time frame as a ball park because I will use any additional income to speed this process along.

The fact that you'll earn a small commission on your own deals is just gravy and the learning process to become one won't be wasted either if you're going into the business.Good luckBrian
