What age of a MF is too old? I'm researching MF that are in Columbus OH and many are 1970-1980.Most have major capex reno done (roof etc) but I wonder what or if there is a bldg age that I should turn away from?

Who is going to the event this year? Will be fun to see everyone

I joined Multifamily Strategy in Q3 of 2022. Prior to year's end I purchased my first 14 units with 2 other partners, owner financed. In Dec of 2024 I bought a single family and empty lot, intending to flip. When the sell didn't go through, I pivoted to turn it into a rental and easily cash flowed. In January, I went full time self employed. I run my own engineering company and real estate. In March I bought a 6 plex. As of yesterday, I closed on a 5 plex with no money out of pocket. Currently buying a 38 unit Motel to convert into efficiency units. I've got another 25 unit apartment complex the owner is ready to sell to me, but I'm running out of capacity and liquid cash. Lessons Learned 1) Real Estate has easy concepts, but it's hard work. "Passive Income" is more like front-loading all the work. One day it may be fairly passive, but it takes a bunch of work to get there. 2) Take time to review. We know the why must be strong, but sometimes the day to day can obfuscate the why. I always appreciated the intentionality in this mentorship to choose a strong enough why. Mine is to own my time so that I can spend more time with family/friends/church. But what good is my time if I burn all the friendships as I try to pursue this goal? Going out on my own gave me a large chunk of my time back to me so that I can ensure I'm meeting the needs of those around me. 3)Double everything! Everything takes more money and time than what's expected. Bring more reserves than you think are needed so that you don't have to sweat as much when things don't go right. I'm in OKC, if you are close by, I'd love to grab a coffee.

Hello all, I’m a new member in the mentorship as of a couple days ago. As I’m sitting in my hotel room in South Korea and about to fly to Hong Kong in a few hours. I’m just curious if there are others out there that are getting started in the real estate game, but balancing their existing career? How do you continue to drive forward to meet new goals you’re setting for yourself when you are still grinding at the so called “9 to 5”? I’m in a bit of a unique situation, flying cargo for an airline. I’m gone half of every month and don’t have connectivity in the air to be on this community, learn from the course material (as it’s not downloadable…YET!!!! Please make them downloadable on the app), research markets, analyze deals, and so on and so forth. Is anyone in the same boat traveling internationally frequently and trying to get their feet under them in this space? I’ve got an idea for my memoir now that I’m writing this post. It’s called “Jet Lag: Grounding Yourself in Real Estate while Soaring Through the Sky” lol
