You have to decide if you want passive returns, or are you ready to roll up your sleeve & get under the hood?

I've read the book "Real Estate Note Investing" and ready to learn more about purchasing notes.Any advise/suggestions on developing a plan and  where to start would be greatly appreciated.

Hello Everyone,I am relatively new to BP as I only started listening to BP podcasts about a month ago and been trying to learn as much as I can about real estate investment. My goal this year is to buy my first duplex...

I'd like to start in the GTA area (if possible buy a duplex to live in 1 part and rent out the other) and branch out to other areas in Ontario, as i gain more experience, and partnerships with like minded people.I'd like to add that BiggerPockets is a great site filled with a wealth of information, and i am anxious to consume as much as possible.

I would add that the short-term rental cycle is seasonal here--there's a bit of a winter slump so be ready for that.

You have thousands of investors here ready to reply.

I am getting ready to start a small-ish marketing campaign and would REALLY REALLY appreciate and tips or words of advice.Thanks,-ryan

If you send out enough offers (like we do) it's not hard to uncover folks that are ready to sell.Sure a lot more goes into it, but that's the gist.Hope that helps!

Non of the move-in ready ones are going to be killer deals, but you can cover your mortgage with rents, put some away for expenses, and build equity while you live free, but I wouldn't go in expecting too much cash flow. 

I’m ready to get in the game.
