I have my father's 30 year old contracting company at my disposal, I work directly with an in house mortgage lender at my office as well as a property management company (which I would primarily use on a consulting only basis to begin with) and I have 2-3 options for creatively financing my first few deals. 

Also, as you self educate you will find a more specific strategy, the more focused you get, the more someone else can help you move forward.

I understand I am obligated to direct them to their nearest attorney to draw up the note, etc.

Then start reaching out to owners directly.

Im self employeed so seeing if anythings out there for a lesser loan amounts.

I was inspired today by the most recent BP podcast, and as it states; I am training my self to think about "how  I can expedite  my goals to financial freedom VS making excuses and giving into fear and analysis paralysis. 

I am evaluating if it would make sense for me to move my 401k into a self directed IRA and use it to invest in a turn key property.

At the beginning of this year I found myself on a self improvement/personal development journey.

Also let's chat and see which direction we can go.Glad to finally see some more newbie investors in the Jax area, we started to look a little empty lol.

Feel free to introduce yourself on the forum or send me a direct message.
