he in lots of her picturesBuilding an empire together!

Flipping houses for rookies and the flip empire will always be 2 of my go To podcasts.

I think that's a great start to begin building your empire.

What is happening in the stock market is fraudulent, it should be illegal but our politicians are participating -   another symptom of a collapsing empire 

as for those saying to use a property manager or not if your looking for the most instant cash flow obviously a pm would take away from that, but if you are not experienced in working with contractors you may lose far more by a job going south than you would hiring an expert Pm.Also while building your empire to get you to not work you probably will make a much bigger dent doing your 9-5 work or finding more ways to make cash as you pay down your mortgage the true cash flow comes after the mortgage is paid off, so for this I would Hire a PM while you are still working and build to 5 to 10 paid off buildings and than self manage when you decide its time to stop working the day job

Now, their grandkids act like they own the Empire State Building just because they have a few properties or a well-paying job.I’m not implying this applies to OP at all.

Meanwhile, army's of seasoned investment bankers spend millions on a faster fiber-optic connection to NYSE because 1-millisecond shorter latency allows them to improve their trades by 0.01%.. but Johnny thinks he can outperform them all with his Robin Hood app by a factor of 1,000.The notion of investing 50k into real estate and growing it into an empire is a pipe dream, at least since after 2015.

It doesn't sound like you're trying to build an empire, so absolutely it's not too late. 

Once you get pre-approval for a loan, you can go out and start building your empire!
