My goal is to build a strong foundation for long-term financial freedom while learning from experienced investors here in the BiggerPockets community.Professionally, I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration with a Specialization in Supply Chain Management and a Minor in Business Analytics.

Deals like that often come with strong underwriting, professional property management, and a team approach, which can make targeting undervalued, multi-tenant properties more manageable.Markets that have been showing opportunity  include Sun Belt cities with growing populations and job markets, as well as secondary metro areas where older properties can be repositioned for higher returns

Creative financing is definitely a smart angle, especially with a property you own free and clear—you can explore HELOCs, cash-out refis, or even private lending since you’ve got strong equity to leverage.

Right now in Columbus, the market is still really strong compared to a lot of other places—there’s a ton of population growth, job growth, and major companies moving in or expanding like Intel, Amazon, Google, Facebook, Microsoft, Honda, LG, and Anduril.

You’re in a strong position given your equity and long-term ownership.

Hi @Jacob Bejarano, Many successful investors start in their 40s or 50s with strong income, discipline, and savings habits already in place.. all big advantages.

It’s generally better suited for stable C or B- neighborhoods with strong housing authority support.
