That’s the first thing you can do that will really help you move forward in your investing career.  

I am at the early stages of my solo investing career, I have $10k for down payment, and have been preapproved for about $200k FHA (3,5% down) or $155k Conventional (5%) down.I would really love to either flip to gain a bit more capital or use the BRRRR method, depending on the numbers, but I think my best chances in this market(Twin Cities, MN metro) will be to have a cash offer or hard money, as it seems the value add here comes from property distress, which isn’t exactly FHA/conventional friendly.As an example, are there hard money lenders in Minnesota that would lend $170k for purchase and rehab based on an ARV of $270k, if I only have $10k cash?

I'm 23 years old and just about a year into my career in apartment management and very eager to start my real estate investing journey. 

I work as a Civil Engineer and have encountered a crossroad in my career.

I am still in debt (trying to get debt-free) HOWEVER, with this first flip netting me positive numbers, it is difficult to turn my back on yet another property that could do the same and this may now BECOME a possible career.

It's not the huge contributions at the end of a working career that make your IRA look good.
