I'm extremely driven to succeed and looking for others whom are also riding the same train.

@Moshe Wolfe sounds like your doing all the right things to succeed in this space.Best of luck!

By comparison you could probably save up a down payment in less than a year, come back on BP and find a turnkey which will be much more likely to succeed, imo.

This is a sales job so you will have to overcome the shyness to succeed, but working for another agent until you feel confident is a good way to go. 

BP is a fantastic community and has everything you need to succeed.

@Landen EnnsEveryone wants to start in something that requires no money down, very little money down, or exponential growth.Pulling off  a string of successful BRRRRs at a distance almost always requires trusted contractors, a network of individuals in the target area, strong personal/family ties to the target area, strong money connections in depth, good deal flow pipeline.It would really be wish to slow down, figure things out, and run a test buy and renovation to really understand more of the difficulties, something small that you can afford to lose money on, perhaps as much as 50% of the money that you put into the initial project before you go for your moon shot.I have never made the personal acquaintance anyone who actually started in long-distance BRRRR with their first buy and succeeded over the long haul.

But definitely not networking :) There is a lot of people who want to see new investors succeed for whatever that is worth.

I am sure you will succeed.  

Find a good one and he/she will help you succeed as an investor.
