Great to see new faces and you have already jumped in and got one under your belt.

It definitely helps to have a few purchases under your belt before becoming an agent - having bought houses before being and agent, and now with quite a bit of experience as an agent, I can say that its a lot harder than it looks. 

I wouldn’t get into STR’s until you have a couple LTR’s under your belt. 

Getting a few SFR or small multis under your belt will go a long ways in convincing people to trust their money with you 

Merely getting some wholesalers’ names, even if they are experienced/reputable, doesn’t necessarily get you too far toward that goal since virtually every other investor wants to do the same thing.When you interview a wholesaler, they’re also interviewing you to see if you fit the profile of a sophisticated, reputable cash buyer who WILL CLOSE once you commit.If you fit that criteria then one on one networking is your chance to prove it to them.And if you don’t, then my advice would be to build relationships with aspiring/promising wholesalers, who maybe have one or two deals under their belt instead of 50, and try to be helpful to them and “grow with them”.

Our hope is to get equity under our belts before taking a stab at VT investing.  

The PMs have at least over 100 similar acquisitions under their belt, so I'd say they have the necessary knowledge and experience to pull this off again and again.

@Nicholas VanKlompenberg Congrats on getting your 1st investment under your belt.

A part of me thinks you know a lot about real estate since you already have your first deal under your belt and you’re killing it.

Hello everyone.I'm a new investor with barely my first deal under my belt.
