@Andrew Keeler Awesome goal Andrew, I have a similar one with living in Hawaii. Let’s get to work!🙌🏽😊

@Michael Borger Definitely makes sense with Hawaii. Thank you Michael!

@Lane Kawaoka Thanks for the incite Lane! I’ve learned the 1% rule definitely. I also like the live where you want, invest where the numbers work. Did you find partners through BiggerPockets when investing in different areas? I saw you have numerous investments in different states.

Does anyone here invest in Oahu, Hawaii? If so, what investments do you have? How does it work to be investing in a very popular tourist area? Would love to learn more about investments there!

@Dan Schweit Hi Dan, thanks for the response! I will personally message you with some questions, thank you!

@Stacey Ocampo $660k**

Hi guys! I am trying to analyze deals every week and studying my neighborhoods, driving for dollars, and looking at different listings while studying for my real estate license. I am new so I am a sponge and want to learn the most I can. I came across a duplex in my town (I grew up here in Santa Clarita and it’s been developing a lot these past years). I was wondering if someone was willing to help me fill in what else I’d need to put in the bigger pockets calculator. (Need a little bit of guidance).

The duplex I found on Redfin. It is listed for $660, estimated monthly is $2,985, built in 1962, pictures show it needs light rehab, painting, new cabinets. It has 2 units, each having 2 bedrooms and 1 bath. Could this be a possible house hack to calculate? I know there might be information missing, I can fill it in if someone tells me what to fill in. Thanks ahead for anyone willing to help!

@Erik Bottema Hi Erik! Are you still working on your project in Santa Clarita? I live here and interested in doing bird dogging or work to help you out. I’m extremely new and have just started!

@Tunde McConnell Thank you for sharing! As a new person in real estate, I’m learning and you posting these from Santa Clarita, (where I live) only drives me to keep going. I have been living here since I was a kid and never did I think to see homes as investments. POV changed for the better!

@Jin Kim Been studying still! Application hasn’t been processed and they’re still on August 27th’s as of October 5. Was told it was going to take 8-10 weeks to have a test date!
