Hello everyone! I'm a novice SFH investor. I guess you would call me an "accidental landlord" as I was able to take advantage of our interest rate on our first home. My wife and I bought our 2nd home just recently, and rent out our 1st home. I got a taste of real estate and have been learning a little more through YouTube videos, webinars, etc. But now I think I'm ready to take that next step and put things into action. By watching these videos I've recently learned I already made my first mistake by buying the wrong property for our 2nd home, lol. As there were better deals out there. But I guess hindsight is not always 20/20, and I guess that is part of the real-estate territory. But I also learned-reluctantly- I need a mentor, and that's not always cheap. But here we are, when there is a will, there's a way. Thank y'all! I look forward to hearing your stories!
