Hey Joe! Welcome to BP! Starting with buy-and-hold single-family and multifamily properties is a great strategy, especially in a market like Cincinnati, which has solid rental demand and growth potential.

Hey Barry! It's awesome to see someone with your level of experience in the BP Group. Leveraging your background in custom home building and development will definitely give you a strong advantage as you dive into the BRRRR strategy. It's also inspiring to hear how much your family motivates you—having that "why" is so important!

Hey Minji! It's great that you're diving into the BRRRR strategy! Since you're in New York and want to stay close, you might consider areas in New Jersey, such as Newark, or Jersey City, where there's strong rental demand. Parts of Pennsylvania, like Allentown or Scranton, also offer good opportunities within driving distance, with lower property costs and more landlord-friendly regulations. Connecting with local real estate investor groups, attending meetups and conferences, either in person or online, can give you advice + support as well!

Hey Erin! A local lender may have a better understanding of the market conditions, zoning laws, etc. in your area, which can be a positive advantage. On the other hand, non-local lenders may offer more competitive terms or flexibility since they're not tied to specific regional trends. It really doesn't always matter if the lender isn't local, as long as they're reliable, knowledgeable, and responsive to you.

Hey Alvin! Never too late! It's impressive that you've bought and sold over 20 properties in the Atlanta area over the years—that’s a wealth of experience, even if you didn’t start out as an investor! Now that you're diving into multifamily, mobile homes, and flipping, this community will be a great resource to help you navigate those new strategies. There’s plenty of financing options to explore, and I’m sure you'll find some great advice here!

Hey Matt! Love that you're thinking about pursuing your 1st investment!! Saw you were based out of Indiana.. are you thinking about investing in that market or open to other areas as well?

Hey Hector! Welcome to the BP community—it sounds like you're on an exciting path toward financial independence! House hacking in Houston is a great strategy to get started, and it’s awesome that you’re focusing on multifamily from the get-go. Clearing debt and saving up shows you’re laying a solid foundation, and the podcasts and books you’re diving into will definitely help you along the way. Good luck on your progress!

Hey Benjamin! Congrats on growing your portfolio so quickly—that’s amazing progress in just a couple of years! The BP community is a great place to learn and connect with others who are also focused on buy & hold strategies.
