I have been looking at Norada real estate and Roof stock and find their cash flow numbers differ greatly.

But I want to know how to get started in real estate.

I've made it my mission to share my experience with as many real estate investors, home improvement contractors, and homeowners in the Greater Pittsburgh area as possible.I wanted to give you a heads-up about my experience with Affordable Dumpster Rental.

I recommend working an accountant who specializes in real estate taxation and tax planning.

There is nothing wrong with FHA, but most real estate pros would agree that if you are trying to get a seller to accept an offer when there are other competing offers, a conventional loan offer is going to usually be more favorable than an FHA offer at the same price.   

Have you invested in real estate before? 

@Nicolette YorkRecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

Real estate is a long game, seems like a great cash flowing property.

Investors work with real people.

I live and invest in the East Bay Area, CA.
