Hopeful New Investor

[Britt Arlen]

Hi everyone! My name is Britt Arlen, I am a chef/business owner in the suburbs of Chicago (New Lenox). Started getting into real estate podcasts and the idea of becoming a real estate investor for the future but am not exactly what model would best fit me. I'm particularly reluctant on analyzing initial rehab costs as I think it would be smart to buy into a cheaper/slightly more run down property as a first. I'm open to any/all suggestions on areas to canvas for first time investor opportunities as well as any helpful starter info in general!  Excited to start this journey!

Hey @Britt Arlen have you thought about househacking? That’s how many beginners start and the best way to start in my opinion. Also, you should probably start connecting with lenders to see what loan options and amount you qualify for.
