I have done a few flips and I'm looking to get the ball rolling in the rental game. 

I'm a video game designer and I live in Fairfax Virginia.I'd been thinking about switching over some money from stocks to real estate ever since the stock market started going crazy over the virus situation.

Many people talk a good game but haven’t done much.B.

They have more skin in the game then you do.Make sure you get clear title.

@Mark Huneycutt - no matter where you invest - nobody is going to loan you a boat full of cash for renovations without significant skin in the game to yourself and cost.

The path had a lot of similar stops, and people...just the specifics are different.The bottom line is you can and will learn the game of REI from more than one teacher..and they all can contribute something positive to your education...paid or free. 

@Yenisel Avila this is definitely one of the most debated topics in the game but with iBuyers being out of the game the lead flower has never been better so I would say go after the seller and be aggressive with what you contract the property. 

Let's play a game. 

Which means you just need some kind of skin in the game, it could be as little as $1. 

Building relationships with property managers, contractors, inspectors, agentsLearning how to become a situational extrovert..Play a game to excecute on a wholesale deal or two in the next 90 days..adds to your war chest and really gets those juices really flowing.
