There's been so much interest in real estate investing and the success stories on podcasts and in books - most of which were achieved over the last decade - give people the real estate "bug" and they often over pay either because they don't know how to run the numbers or because they're just so anxious to get in.

Happy to chat more, although I'm more responsive and active on Instagram @james_hwangThe real estate investing world is small and the MTR operator world is even smaller.

Hi Guys, I am planning to buy 2 properties in California with a total of 11 doors between them.

Realize at the outset that real estate will involve all different types to service, maintain, repair, improve, insure, manage and eventually sell.  

Real Estate is one of the most illiquid asset classes and thus takes months to work its way through.

You should always vet your agent to ensure they are experienced and working hard, full-time, in the market.It's nice if you can find an agent that specializes in real estate investing, but any solid agent should work well for you. 

Purchase price: $195,000 Cash invested: $27,200 Sale price: $259,000 Contributors: Peter Vekselman Partner Driven, alongside our partner Seth Choate, acquired a property on Mount Vernon Dr #D in Modesto, CA, for $195,000 on 4/29/2022.

Have you ever partnered with others on real estate ventures?

I am looking for a recommendation for best book to introduce me to syndication as a real estate investment strategy.  

You are mentioning highly sought after parts of GA.I do commercial real estate over 20 years now specializing in NNN properties.Don't expect monster cash flow here for residential.
