Closing on first property... less obvious next steps?
We are closing on our first property Friday (a single family home that needs some renovating before renting). What should I be thinking about now?
We have an accountant, attorney, contractor, and insurance lined up. We have renovations budgeted for. We plan to put an old vehicle in the driveway while we rehab. We have a lease drafted and have had conversations with a potential tenant. Are there less obvious things I should be thinking about?
