How’s it going ?

My name is Stedman Valentine currently located in Columbus, OH i’m in the very beginning stages of my R.E journey. I’m looking to connect with all R.E professionals, with hopes of  receiving feedback in regards to ( Leveraging Credit, Finding the right lender, Loans, Investment strategies etc) overall I’m currently in a good position with a down payment, credit, debt-income. I’m just not quite sure where to start !?!

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated, helping me get one step closer to my ultimate goal of obtaining my FIRST investment property!!

Thanks !!!

Would love to link up! I’m an agent by trade and a small MF investor here in Columbus.

You'll find that As big as Columbus is you'll run across the same names in the REI community.

@Austin Steed Sounds Great ! Let’s link up, very interested in speaking with you !

You are definitely at an advantage by being local in Columbus. As said before you are coming to run across some of the same people in for real estate investing. I would love to connect and best of luck! @Stedman Valentine

 Hi Stedman, I would start by connecting with a real estate agent who is focused on investments. A good agent will be able to help you get started. 

The amount of times OH or Columbus has popped up on BiggerPockets as a market to invest in even just in the last week is a lot! 

So, you did not have a market issue and possibly a ton of options to invest in something. If you are unable to HouseHack, find a 3 bedroom to buy and maybe rent out rooms to friends depending on what stage you are in your life. 

As they say, there are a 100 ways to invest in real estate!

Congrats on starting your Real Estate journey! I would love to link up and learn more about your goals

@Raul Velazquez Jr Thank you so much for the contacts, very appreciated!

@Nick Workman Sounds great ! I’ll be contacting you soon!
