Yes, that’s essentially my underlying question.

Sustainable Impact:Assessing the long-term impact of the funded projects is essential.

I’m really into value add real estate strategies, buy and hold, raw land, trailer parks, tiny homes, micro units, agriculture, sub-to, creative finance. 

(first fourplex)I am currently in the process of figuring out the most effective way to fund the rehab.With interest rates so high, I'm terrified at what hard money lenders will quote me at... but maybe its the only way.Any other creative strategies out there other than hard money lenders?

However, if you're looking for a strong market with lower numbers, you do not have to leave the state of Georgia to find them.Areas such as Athens, Augusta, Statesboro, as well as Macon, to name a few, provide great opportunities for flipping and even higher potential for buy-and-hold strategies since all four are college towns.

I find this corporate rental flip strategy rewarding, leveraging rental income for substantial returns.

What are some strategies and methods that have worked for you guys to find and connect to/build relationships with other investors as a beginner in real estate?

ie funding deals, underwriting properties, talking with agents, determining strategies for investing…Comment what you thought has been the hardest part in the start of the process!

Hi Jordan, I would encourage exploring markets like Merced as well but it depends on your strategy.

Whether you're looking at rental properties, fix-and-flips, or any other investment strategy, the possibilities are boundless.
