Get with a lender who works with investors and educates their audience so you can understand the ins and outs.Think about taxes from day one: Even on your first property, keeping clean records matters.

I understand having financial difficulty.  

One thing I’d add is to get a high-level understanding of how real estate benefits you from a tax perspective.

I think the most important thing is to have an actual understanding of the selected market.

I’d especially appreciate recommendations for people who understand long-distance systems and voucher demand in Midwest markets.Thanks in advance for any leads—I know this community always comes through with great connections.Best,Juan Carlos Flores@Juan Carlos Flores Garcia if you're still searching for a Section 8 Coach in the Mid-West DM me for a connection (not me btw) 

So I understand the internals and GAAP.Recently we replace Quickbooks and Xero altogether.

A great place to start is by conducting thorough research to understand the local real estate market and identify potential investment opportunities.

Places like Arizona, Texas, Indiana, Ohio, Alabama, Georgia, Florida, California, (AR TX IN OH GA AL TN CA), Which spells Artxinohgaaltnca which means something fancy I’m sure, all offer great opportunities, for cash flow and safe growth.Make sure you team up with someone that understands how to put this together for you and at the same times teaches you how to use the best practices for learning investing in real estate like my SDIRA investors learn.It’s worth the time to make the switch.

everywhere you look, gurus are telling people to start wholesaling by doing agent outreachthey make it sound simple,  just call agents, get deals, and make quick moneybut the truth is, this advice is misleading and it’s hurting the real estate marketagents are getting flooded with calls from people who don’t understand contracts, laws, or even what wholesaling really meansit wastes time, damages trust, and makes agents less likely to work with real investors who actually know what they’re doingwholesaling can be done the right way, but not by spamming agents with bad advice from youtubeif people want to wholesale, they need to learn the business, follow state laws, and build real relationshipsanything less just adds more confusion and gives wholesaling a bad nameso if you're wholesaling, I'm telling you try off market deals first, get the experience, build up the capital and once you're able to start buying houses then contact agents
