Ready to buy my first multi-family home!

Hi Everyone,

I'm a soon to be 35-year-old new investor. I tried my hand at RE investing years ago and lost a lot of money. I was able to save up and I'm ready to try my hand at this again but smarter. My short-term goal is to find a property to house hack by the end of the year. I am open to moving anywhere in the country as I work remotely. 

My longer-term goal is to create a RE portfolio that will bring me at least $10,000 net profit monthly. This is the number I need to reach my early retirement goals.

I don't know where to start and would appreciate any help or guidance. I am ready to hit the ground running and will work my a** off to make it happen.

Congrats on jumping back in the market after a tough go at it, that takes guts!

If you're open to anywhere, that's a good thing and a bad thing. Good thing because it means you have lots of options! Bad thing because it can be too broad and become hard to make a decision. Like some other people on here already suggested, finding a few cities you want to live in first and then looking at the market/ connecting with an agent there is your next step to see if that area is a real possibility for you!
