Thank you, Glen, for all the info on meetups! Sad to have missed the meetup yesterday. I will plan to attend the next one if my schedule allows! 

@AliceSun Norman thank you! Would love to hear all about it. Just sent you a PM!

@Andrew Pokrzywinski I would love that! Where are you moving from?

Hello Bigger Pockets! I have been listening and reading here for about 2 years now while working as a realtor with a wholesaling company in Chicago, IL. It has been interesting, and I have learned SO much.

I am getting ready to finally jump in and be an investor myself after helping many investors purchase millions of dollars in investment properties over the last 2 years.

I just moved to the Jacksonville area and am looking to make connections with people who know the Jacksonville market well. I am of course looking to build a team (Well connected Realtor, RE Attorney, reliable contractors, property manager, etc.) and get set up well. I am looking to buy my first investment property in the next 6-12 months. Hopefully a 3-4 unit building that I will house hack, but as I mentioned- I still need to understand the market and area better here in Jacksonville before setting a strategy!

Thanks so much in advance, I am looking forward to hearing what you all have to say about Jacksonville real estate!

Best,

Rachael

Hi guys! I am just getting started in real estate. I am a licensed real estate agent, and I work for a company that buys fixer uppers and sells them to investors. So all day every day I am analyzing deals, seeing houses, putting rehab estimates together etc. I am ready to start planning for my own real estate investing  

I am in Chicago and thinking house hacking is the best way for me to get started. Just a few questions about 203k loans- what are good ways to find lenders for standard 203k loans (planning on my rehab being well over $35k) and realistically what are the qualifications? If I am needing the projected rental income of the property to help me qualify for the loan how does that work? Any other thoughts or experiences are helpful too. Thanks in advance!
