Hi all,new to bigger pockets.

Hey guys! I just joined im an insurance agent and specialize in the homebuying industry! I really want to get my first investment property within the next year! Im super well versed in the insurance side of things but...

If its a new building then its sometimes more if the banks are breathing down their necks.

Hey yall I’m 20 years old currently serving in the U.S. Air Force! Wondering if there’s any agents/investors out there looking for young hungry investor. I plan on doing long distance investing since I’ll be deploying...

That principle paydown is your new equity in theory.

Hey BP community,I am brand new to REI and wanted to take the time to ask some questions to learn more about the market.First and foremost I have been looking at properties in West Ashley & Johns Island to house hack.- Looking for rental friendly area- Want to be close to the beach / downtown Charleston- I am more interested in Johns Island due to tax dollars being put into that area#1 What does a good Charleston deal look like?

One wants to install a used refrigerator to save money, while the other wants a new refrigerator with a warranty.

I would focus on established markets that are still showing growth and have more than just one draw.Taking my main market of Tampa Metro as an example - There is more than just beaches, you also have MLB/NHL/NFL + Spring break and MLB Spring training, aquariums, golf, casino, new downtown development, and a lot of business travel.You want to avoid markets with just one draw, as if something happens to that draw, you will be hurting for who knows how long.

The houses I have bought so far were new / newish but now I  am opening up to other approaches like flipping and BRRR. 

Do you plan on doing STRs or is this a brand new luxury 4-Plex where you may be able to get high LTR rents?
