Looking for some direction!
Hey all! I don't want to make this long so I'll get to the point. I'm just starting my research on investing. I've only bought one home, and it was a joint buy of a mobile home with my long time fiancée. We have since split and I am off that loan. Now I'm on my own and looking to invest. I'd like to also buy myself a small home for me and my little boy. I don't know how to really start. I love the idea of flipping, and single family homes, but I'd have to contract out, as I don't know enough to do it myself. What do I do first? Go to the bank for a loan? I'm essentially starting out with no money. I am financially stable in my everyday life, but I don't have a chunk of money to put down. Is the bank my first step?? I'm in south central Texas if that helps.
