I purchased my first investment property in Jan.

I am investing in real estate without the need to put in 20%+ deposit, He pays the monthly mortgage which im not liable for, I benefit from appreciation..

Just joined these forums so hopefully this is in the right thread.I work freelence and W2 work and I want to invest in real estate next year.

Returns on cash invested will be huge when you factor in the appreciation gains.

In real estate investing, the value you provide should far outweigh the payment you receive.As "The Go-Giver" by Bob Burg and John David Mann teaches:"Your true worth is determined by how much more you give in value, than you take in payment."

Depending on where you're investing, is there any areas that are not investing worthy?

The wannabes think wholesaling is either real estate investing or being in their “own business”.  

It's one of the absolute worst parts of rental property investing of any variety.Your first step is going to be to research Texas law, and then narrow it down to the particular county and municipality this property is in.
