Hi there,just starting out as an investor and considering Bay Area as one of the markets.

Research local rental market trends for 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom homes to determine competitive rental rates and ensure they align with your financial goals.Consulting with local real estate professionals can provide valuable insights into market trends and potential challenges.

In my local market, I can still find cash flowing properties in that price range, approx. 100-200 per SFH.

Most loans originated by direct lenders are sold on the secondary market.

We are looking at possibly expanding our investing and wholesaling operation to the Milwaukee market.

Look for properties priced at least 20-30% below market value to account for renovation costs and profit margin.

For the last 10 years, I've been living in Asia running a small marketing business I started from nothing to making $3-4k per month.

**I know this is all going to vary based on everyone's unique goals, timeline, and life situation**But I am curious to know how you think about your real estate portfolio and how you approach your strategy.

To cover our expenses now, I work as an SEO strategist at a digital marketing agency helping law firms grow their number of leads using local and national SEO strategies.Lately I've been going through the BP "SMARTER course" and some of the webinars.

Current market value is between $9k-$10k per acre, so $540,000 to $600,000.My big question is I don't fully understand if/how I can use that equity effectively to help out with other BRRRR properties.
