Ask HN: Learning Real Estate Investing Through Investor Profiles
For those looking to get into real estate, what's holding you back from making your first/next real estate investment?
I don't expect Hacker News to have a high density of real estate investors (relative to Bigger Pockets or r/RealEstate). But every now and then investment questions pop up, usually regarding the stock market, so I figured real estate deserved a little more love. It's less spoken about because the barrier of entry seems higher and riskier, but as a software engineer with no network in the space who took a random plunge in REI years ago, it has worked out spectacularly for me.
I'm 28, so no gray hair RE investor wisdom to share exclusively, but I do know others way more experienced than I who would love to share their story and how they scaled their properties over time.
Would folks on HN be interested in reading in-depth profiles about experienced real estate investors? There would be further options to follow up with said investors for high-touch services or guidance if needed as well.
