Bought our first family home planning to stay forever. Logged the property and made $5,000 and got our property cleared. We built a fence. Decided to list the home and move and were not happy with the list price so we rented it out for 12 months. That is when we first heard of Bigger Pockets. The property value went way up during the year. We split our 6-acre lot into two lots. Sold the home for $340,000 and the second lot for $115,000. The best deal we have made yet and we were not even trying.

Most people won't put in the work. The work can make you a lot of money if you try.
Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?
Cathrine Arlen (Agent) was phenomenal. She actually recommended us to rent our home and changed our lives. Gambel Bay Timber was great to work with as well.
