Try not to use a coborrower, especially if this will be your first rental. But I love the house hacking method to get started. Will teach you a lot no matter what.

Try to find out city plans for the area in the upcoming 6-12 months. If any big tech companies, giant fast food chains, shopping centers are in the near future, that will tell you all you need to know.

Wow congratulations! I love what you did with it.

Local meetups may be the best spots to find the mentor you're looking for.

Good work! 

Congrats Johnny! Looks awesome 

To be honest, you should look for a STR that doesn't have such a high HOA fee. $800 a month is taking away from most of the cash flow you could make monthly

I recommend closing the first one 

If you're making your monthly payments, a mortgage company will most likely not care if you execute a warranty deed. As long as you pay on time, you don't have to worry about any acceleration clause.

I look for deals in great locations that have high appreciation potential. Cash flow is awesome of course, but I don't need a home run deal in year 1. I believe if you find great rentals in growing areas, cash flow will follow. Appreciation is where the money is made.
