conventional

Secured and rented out already at $1600 a month/ no utilities

Lessons learned? Challenges?

Many lessons learned through this short journey. Most of it was just knowing that this was what i wanted to do. First deal, First home kind of thing. Just head down and dig deep. KEEP MOVING FOWARD if this is what you want to do!

Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

I work with my agent Ryan who was AMAZING! We looked at a solid 30 homes and offered on about 14+. This was around the height of the sellers' market we just went through. We got beat up by the big dogs that are moving in on the area. We also fought single families that had emotional connections to these properties and a large sum of cash to go with it. In the end it's all working out and we are working on the next property every single day.
