Hello Everyone!

I have been following REI for about 2 years, and have listened to many podcasts of BP.

Doing all that got me excited and nothing gets me excited more than property (even though I don't own any)

However! My parents are willing to go in a deal with me and have 300k LOC to use.

We started to attend a local REI meeting, which was pretty awesome.

I'm just here to seek other advice and opinions.

I'm located on Long Island, NY

Both myself and my parents have come down to the following that interest us the most

1) Buy, fix, flip

2) Multifamily rental

I like the idea of multifamily. However, here in NY... they cost a lot (NYC and surrounding areas). 

If you had to go with one or the other, which route would you take? Again, we are keeping all of our options open and just looking for other ideas.

It seems the market is very competitive here!

Cheers!

    Hello Shan,

    Yes, buy, fix and flip and multi fam rentals are something to think about. Let me ask you, do you want to run a real estate business to make money? or do you want to work long hours and spend money in your business? The reason I ask is there are two paths you can take. What is your goal? If you want to talk, let me know.

    Best Regards, John Meza

    The run a real estate business and make money sounds more appealing.

    My short term goal is go do at least one house this year, rather that is flipping or renting. Along with this is to make some cash a bit quicker to get more properties going.

    My long term goal is to have finical stability and freedom.

    I currently run a local service business and just hired a full time manager, so i have plenty of time to put into this new venture.
