I’m here seeking out someone to just take me under their wing and help a newbie learn the ropes or just provide some insight into how they would start investing if they were in my situation.Here is a brief idea of what my situation is:I own a home in Northport, Alabama which is about 20 minutes from downtown Tuscaloosa, Alabama - Home to the University of Alabama.

I think it's the best way to get started when you don't have a ton of money to spare, and you are still learning.1. look up on facebook marketplace what other people are offering their rooms for, that will help you get an idea of what you can charge. 

Lesson learned.  

and you wont learn your IRR until you exit.. 

I'm eager to learn more and willing to go the distance. to whomever is willing to take this step with meThank you!

But I want to learn.

What I've learned so far is that investing is a long term game and not a get rich quick scheme lol.

Also on Airfare learned a hard lesson to.. you must have paper receipts and boarding pass's to write them off.. copy of CC bill and or on line status report is no good

Hi All,As I look at my options to finance my first RE deal, I was researching the early withdrawal penalty from TSP (Federal equivalent to 401K) and just learned that I can take out a TSP loan with no penalty, no tax impact and just have to pay it off with interest (seems to be 4-5% range right now) within 60 months. 

I'm Eric and beginning the journey as a rental property investor.Looking for condo and townhouse opportunities in Central NC for long term rentals.Interested in learning, developing connections, and sharing experiences.
