First Time Buyer/Investor

[Ronald Hernandez]

Hi Everyone,

Brand new here & to real estate investing world.  Heard about Bigger Pockets on Paula Pant's Afford Anything podcast.

Have spent the last few weeks trying read, listen, and learn as much as possible.

Just finished listening to David Greene's - "Long-Distance Real Estate Investing" audiobook, as well as Miracle Morning. 

Have just begun reading Rich Dad, Poor Dad.

Have also listened to following podcasts - Keith Weinhold's "Get Rich Education", Rod Khleif's - "Lifetime CashFlow", The Real Estate Guys, and obviously Bigger Pockets.

Have also bought a Rentometer PRO subscription.

We (me and my wife) are located in Southern New Hampshire. I'm an IT professional by day, and she's in commercial insurance.

We are debt free except for wife's car, and have only about 2 1/2 years left on our mortgage.

We  have about $20-25K to start. Trying to figure which parts of country we should start looking in.

Based on everything we've heard/read, we're thinking of starting with some type of multi-family. Ideally a four-plex, but at least a duplex.

Any tips, advice, etc would be greatly appreciated. 

Trying to not over analyze things, but also not make any costly mistakes.

Thank you,

Ron
