I'll handle rehab cost, management and yearly expenses etc...and would like to build a nation wide company consisting of low income-luxury buy and holds, fix and flips, commercial, development and eventually branch out to vacation rentals as well.  

He meets appraisers, GCs, investors, anytime at any house. 

My name is Travis.I'm 29 and I've never owned a House before.

my scenario was a little different I would buy 20 to 80 acre parcels in Oregon and WA.. then log them .. using the skids roads and log landings strategically ( put them were future driveways and house pads would go). then do short plats  4 lots or less.. then sell the lots on contract.. the logs generally paid for the land so we had no debt on the land .. most land buyers took a few years to get to the point they were ready for construction loans..

open houses are going to be very important to listing agents is my prediction.. no longer the bane of the top producing agents work week and sloughed off to beginner agents.

This would be my very first rental.I have an opportunity to buy a house from an old neighbor for $425k.

If you want to be successful at short term rentals, learn guest relations or hire a property manager.

He does not manage my property, I manage my own,  but he is in upstanding guy.

I would like to pull out some equity from my primary property so I can start investing in real estate, but my house is in need of some renovation.

Networking with other investors can also provide fresh perspectives and new ideas, as sharing experiences often leads to innovative solutions.Additionally, leveraging technology, such as CRM systems, can help streamline lead management and follow-up processes, ensuring no potential opportunity is overlooked.
