Those who fought their way through competitive biddings in super achieving school districts found their investment doubled in 10 years.

Those people should be like minded, and be able to help you and your strategy achieve your goal.

Would be interested in the process first hand if you can PM about it.

I have a 30 location credit union as a client and have first-hand experience... remember, vaults were made to be intruder resistant.

I think it puts the starters in the position to earn good money by stepping into a first-hand-user experience that will illuminate the other two roles (wholesealing and rental ownership). 

and being able to physically see the area first hand gives me the peace of mind to want to pursue investing out there as long as the cash flow numbers make the sense.. which seems to be the case out there! 

@Cayman Rigdon I would further verify the location and the achievable market rent, talk to at least 2 reliable property managers.  

Timeline to achieve this is 10 to 15 years,  conservatively.

I see the value in learning those skills first hand but rehab skills is not imperative in making you a successful real estate investor. 

I would love to hear some first hand experiences with the condo market in Dallas (good or bad) if you have any.My other option is to house-hack a duplex.
