@Nina Granberry

Hey Nina,

Congrats on the 1st property. From here as others mentioned meet new people and build a system of private investors as mentioned in the book “Raising Private Capital” by Matt Faircloth. Private capital is vital to continue investing as money will be needed for each property. Having those powerful systems of private capital and such is what takes local flippers and makes them powerful investors.

Best,

Josiah

@Savannah Watkins

Hey, Savannah

If I were in your shoes I would want to rent it out. Collecting on that passive income and gaining by making the gain more tax savvy. Make sure the numbers work and go break some eggs. :)

@Nick Love

Hey, I’m an early bird all the way. After reading Discipline Equals Freedom by Jocko, I cannot view sleeping in the same. Good question by the way, there have been some interesting answers posted so far.

@Josiah Patrick Zebarth

That would be a bad first deal. ;)

Hey, I’ve got a quick question, got a minute?🙂

I found a rental deal that fits my criteria, but it’s 8hours, 3 minutes from me. I really want to make an offer, but how does one estimate rehab costs, especially so far away. This particular property doesn’t have a tour option and may need a decent rehab. I already contacted the agent and have financing in line. But, I have no plans of getting trapped in a bad flip because.

Best,

Josiah

@Rebecca Salazar

Hey, Rebecca

I liked that you mentioned getting your RE license at the CE shop. I’m in a similar boat right now, looking for a platform to become licensed through. Would you suggest the CE shop? How was/is the experience of getting the license going?

As far as which brokerage to use, I would subscribe to the advice others mentioned, of finding a place that is geared to benefit investors and getting into Real estate investing itself.

Josiah

Thanks for taking the time. There was some really interesting stuff there, although I’m not surprised about RDPD. :)
