In today's market with high prices, high rates, and slower sales, I wouldn't recommend starting in flips unless you have a sure thing.

You’re in the right place to start your real estate journey.

I just returned to Jackson after 30 years gone and want to get started again with investment properties (primarily buy-and-hold or rehabbing and reselling to help people get their own home).

A lot of the STR management companies have contracts with companies to house their employees when they travel for extended periods of time.

You may want to start working on your credit score to save big long term dollars on better rates in the future.

We’ve been gathering information about the rental property market in Japan in terms of realistic expectations for yields, as well as a reasonable timeline for getting started and generating income to support our family.

These forums are a great place to learn and meet people, whether you're just starting out or you're a seasoned investor.

Hi @Rita SamaddarI recommend areas based on three things:Budget: Knowing your cash to close helps me suggest the best areas, especially if you're using a hard money loan.Rehab Level: Whether you prefer low or major rehab impacts the neighborhoods I'll recommend.Market Dynamics: Areas with minimal days on market are ideal, as they predict how quickly your property will sell post-rehab.In conclusion, start with how much you have to work with and the level of rehab you're comfortable with to find the best areas for fix and flip.
