Out on my own

Member since 2026 · 1 post · 2 votes

Hello!

I am a relative newby who has purchased some long-term rentals with a partner and done some subject-to deals in my own and I'm looking to grow my long-term rental portfolio.

I am also looking at multi-family properties and would love to learn more from the Bigger Pockets community!

Welcome, Shea! BiggerPockets is a great place to sharpen the fundamentals and hear how different people approach long term vs multifamily as they scale. I learned a ton early on just by lurking, asking questions, and seeing what actually worked for others. What’s the main thing you’re hoping to improve next? deal analysis, financing, or operations? Happy to keep the conversation going!

Welcome, Shea! It sounds like you’ve already got some solid experience with long-term rentals and subject-to deals. For growing a portfolio, especially with multi-family, focusing on markets with strong rental demand, affordable entry prices, and reliable local teams for property management and maintenance can make scaling much easier—especially if you’re investing out of state. Connecting with experienced operators and learning their processes early will save a lot of time and headaches.
