Learning the ropes with least options wholesaling and eventually flipping homes since that’s my true inspiration.

We would eventually like to get into multifamily units, but initially we're both drawn to rehab/flip properties. 

You don't want your shopping center to rely on stores that can eventually be obsolete.

Eventually, you'll find others who may want to work with you.

Eventually you'll need a realtor unless your confidence is high and you buy privately.

I'm wanting to wait until I have around $50k-$100k built up before I start on my next stage of the investing career which is rehab and resell ( then eventually rentals).

I plan on building a profitable portfolio that will eventually serve as my retirement income.

At this point I am somewhat of an open book and would like to learn as much as possible about real estate with the goal of owning single family rental properties and eventually some multifamily properties as well.  

Eventually I will buy my first property but the economy is always one thing that sends a chill down my spine.

In addition there is a high likelihood of considerable differed maintenance (roof, plumbing, electrical, exterior, etc.) which eventually will need to be addressed and will drive up your capital expenditures.
