It seems to me that maybe selling so you can further leverage your cash on hand might be the best idea if you want to grow your portfolio. I can see the appeal of keeping a good income generating property under your belt though.

@Daniel Smithson I wonder if it is still at the Asian buffet?
@Andrew Samples Good luck to you as well! If you ever have some time when you come up here maybe we can grab some coffee!
@Kurtis Montgomery I attended a webinar last night that suggested something like that, I did two last night! Good idea thanks.
Hey everyone,
I'm from Chattanooga, Tennessee, and have recently started (I see the path at least) my journey on building a strong passive income through real estate investing. I came upon the idea since I recently bought my primary residence and found the process interesting and fun!
I'm a bit tapped out on cash since I just bought my residence (I know now this might have been a rookie mistake :[ ), but I do have a full time job, and have decided to start saving for my first real estate investment!
What can I do in the mean time? I'm reading all the materials I can get my hands on, but I feel like through hard work I can push to start investing even sooner than just the paycheck from the daily Rat Race. Any suggestions on actionable steps I can make now to further my book education and (hopefully) my practical education along?
Super happy to be here and to get started,
Paul

Hey Nicole!
I'm not too far away from you in Chattanooga. I hear Atlanta has a consistent track record for real estate. though I'm too much of a newbie to have ever checked myself.
Let me know if you ever travel into TN

@David Nguyen Sounds good David! I get down to Atlanta every know and again, but I definitely don't know the area all that well. Would love to figure it all out.

Hey Pavel!
I live pretty close to the border so I'm sure we can make that happen!

Hi Paul,
Welcome to BP. I get an alert when Chattanooga is mentioned and it sent me one for your post. I am in Chattanooga too. We are currently "House hacking" in a duplex we bought in East Ridge as our first investment property. I can tell you BP is the place to be if you want to invest in real estate. We couldn't have done it without the articles and advice found here. So you've already made a great decision!
Welcome, again!

Hey Matt!
Congrats on your first investment property!
House hacking is definitely a new term for me that I need to look into.
BiggerPockets seems like a great community to learn, I'm currently working my way through the podcasts and the beginning ones are extremely inspiring.
Glad to hear it helped in your success!
Paul
