Strategies for Newbies

Jacob Bassett
Posted

Hello everyone,

I'm wondering what is the recommended strategy to get started in real estate investing. There's wholesaling, fix n' flip, foreclosures, house hacking, multi-family.... the list goes on. I'm wanting to pull the trigger soon and really get into the game. In your honest opinion what is a good strategy to start with without shooting myself in the foot? Thanks in advanced for all your help!

-Jacob

Yes, go to your local REIA. It's a relationship type business played on a local field.

Take inventory of you strengths and interests. That's the hard work you need to do up front.

Then, after you've done your homework, invest in a way that leverages YOUR strengths.

Just my two cents. Best to you!
