I will walk you through step by step .

hi Jasmine, are your auctions all online or court house steps?

You are taking a great first step, the learning step.

But you should pay her off the top, in full.But whatever you do, because she backed you the first time, you owe it to her to keep her informed every step of the way. 

Like I said I'm very new to this but very interested just trying to get as much knowledge so I can take my first step.

I thought getting pre-qualified was the first step?

My next step is to flip a property for about a $35,000 profit and sell it within 4 months.

Someone who has enough staff on hand that if someone quits, falls sick, goes on vacation, there will be someone else to step in. 1 man army or husband wife setting up a PM shop can be a bad idea 

Tenants are currently on a month to month lease and after the upgrades, I plan on raising rents from $1,000/mo to $1,300/mo (in thIs city you can’t raise rents by $600/mo overnight, it has to be step function).

But regardless, you should always start by educating yourself, which it looks like you are doing already.Next step would be to determine what vehicle or strategy within multifamily is going to take you to where you want to go.
