I'm Will, a new real estate investor and am eager to learn and grow in real estate.

@Dylan Lersch However while you’re saving money and improving your credit score keep learning, reading, listening to podcasts, following the forums, asking questions, and analyzing deals.

Encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

@Ryan Wakabayashi that’s great I am doing the same thing trying to learn as much as I can and network with as many people as possible In the cities that I would like to invest in.

It is only easy with the right team. 

that we’ve learned in our 24 years, managing almost 700 doors across the Metro Detroit area, including almost 100 S8 leases.

What did you learn?  

@Munjal Adhvaryuare you able to travel in person to your target market to build a team and look at properties?

Hi Shane, I want to tell you something from my research because it seems that we've been doing the same thing when it comes to educating ourselves on RE.Given that you already have 20k, which is around half of the down payment, try to leverage family and friends as private money lender in order to complete the down payment.Second, depending on how long you had your primary, assuming that you did not cash out anything from the equity, you can try out this option ( no need to cash out all, just cash out the amount that you need to make this deal happen).just my humble opinion based on what I have learned!

But it looks like an unfortunate "lesson learned."
