Best advice for first property

[Shawn Pottschmidt]

I am researching as much as I can on the ins and outs of buying a single family home to rent. There is so much information available that it has become overwhelming. Can the successful and not successful people out there give me your best piece of advice. Note: I plan to put in some rehab such as bathroom, kitchen,floors, trim, basically stuff that I'm familiar with having been a home owner for twenty years. Thanks
