@Nate Pena You can start simple and buy a Single Family Home (SFH) and rent out a bedroom or two, or purchase a duplex live in one side and rent out the other, typically you want the rented side to pay for most if not all of the mortgage on the property, so you get to live for free. Feel free to message me if you have more questions

are you local? re you able to do any of the repairs? The cap is an easy fix, I would say you need a few more quotes!

Have you thought at all about house hacking first to get your feet wet?

I like to keep them in my rentals, especially if they come with it. Most renters (at least in my area) will usually only have a washer/dryer set, if that.

I use local banks for loans under 100K and have never had a problem (even got one for 45K) Hope this helps!
