My journey involved (initially) condo LTR's, some of which I paid cash for in Sacramento area ($95,000 and $105,000 etc), then 1031 into duplexes.

As of right now I’m just calling anyone I know who’s in any way involved with real estate hahaBeen calling contractors I know, real estate agents, people I know who own a house (usually residential but hey that’s at least more experience than what I’ve got so I can learn something even if it’s what NOT to do)

Plus, I would never go into any partnership that involved more than 2 people...total. 

Id love to talk all kinds or real estate and just get involved more.Also looking for recommendations of breakout sessions I should be attending.

When government gets involved, things slow down and cost more. 

Hi BP, after watching numerous BP podcasts I have finally decided to get involved in the conversation through the website and forums.

But there is too much risk involved in double closing.

Seldom get that long a renter without children involved (i.e. roommates, young couples, etc.).I would put in a bathtub if the unit only has a single bathroom.Good luck

Such a difficult question to answer… all depends on what you want, the amount of work involved and strategy.
