Newbie from Connecticut Looking to BRRRR in Florida

Hi everyone. I started researching Real Estate about a month ago and It has been consuming all of my free time. I just finished BRRRR and Long Distance Real Estate Investing by David Greene. Those books blew my mind in terms of what is possible with Real Estate. I Day Traded stocks a few years ago with mixed results. The potential in Real Estate with comparably low volatility is incredible.

I am 10 pages into a business plan and looking to purchase my first Single-Family/Small Multi-Family in Jacksonville, FL within the next 3-6 months.  I am excited to join the community, learn, contribute, and network to create some win-win relationships in the future.  My primary focus right now is putting together a good plan and purchasing the first few properties so I can learn by doing in addition to the books, podcasts, webinars, forums, etc.

It's looking like private lenders for the first few deals are set. Finding a solid Realtor, Property Manager, and, Contractor in the Jacksonville area will be a next step. I am looking for ward to networking with everyone and putting the BRRRR strategy to work!

@Andrew B.

Thanks for posting Andrew! I live in NY and am interested in the Jacksonville market as well. Curious to see the responses here from people investing in Jacksonville. I have a few single family rentals in Ohio, so happy to talk about my experience with long distance investing. Feel free to send me a private message if you’d like to connect.

     Which area of Ohio are your single-family rentals in?
