In any market that you're looking into from OOS, it's very important to work with an investor friendly agent so you're able to gain the right insight on the different areas and the risks involved.

Starting small through house hacking, long-term rentals, or flipping helped me gain experience without taking on too much risk.

@Paola AstridIf you’re considering refinancing an FHA loan, it’s a great way to lower monthly payments or gain more flexibility.

But starting with single-family can be a great way to gain experience and confidence before tackling larger deals.If you were someone I knew personally, I would probably suggest multifamily, but it's not for everyone.

If you can attend local investor meetups, that’s a great way to gain market insight and connect with reliable people.It’s also smart to start small with a couple of flips to test the waters, and make sure you understand the local market dynamics before scaling up.Good luck with your expansion! 

I get the frustrations of laundry and especially losing expensive luxury linens that gain 5-star reviews and very happy guests.

Once you've gained enough experience, you can transition to more BRRRR projects.

It’s great to hear how the community has supported your success with Airbnb, and it's awesome that you're now paying it forward by helping others achieve their goals.Your experience with short-term rentals and as a newly licensed broker will be valuable to so many.

It takes longer to realize, but the gain is worth so much more than a couple hundred dollars of cash flow a month.

You're spending over $600k (purchase price + rehab + fees) to make $25k, and then you'll have short term capital gains on that...
