@Omid Khezri what part of CT are you looking to invest in and what part of Florida are you looking to move out of or move back to... I currently invest in both  states (Florida Land investing at the moment and CT a few rental properties). I can chat more about the areas I invest in for both areas if you need ideas or what my thoughts are I can definitely share with you. 

@Raymond Greene have you considered looking for properties on Craigslist/Facebook and maybe sending letters as well in a certain area of North Carolina. I would suggest starting a farm to market to. If you need more information Inbox me, I can definitely help you start looking for deals creatively.

Congratulations!!! This is awesome

I use these forums for networking! I have received a wealth of knowledge and a new network of friends and mentors that I would not have been afford if I did not browse the forums daily! As I continue to grow on in my real estate investing, property management and real estate sales businesses in Connecticut, I have found this platform to be an essential resource! 

I would never suggest taking a forbearance on a mortgage. It seems to much of a gray area in my opinion and rules do change. So today they may say 3 months consecutive payments but when we are in the clear of this pandemic we don't really know what the lending market will look like in the future. I wouldn't do it. Just continue to pay your student loans as you would normally and show that good payment history. I think lenders will look at that when you go to get a loan as there would be no negative impacts just good payment history.

With a forebearance you will probably have to explain why you did it. The less explaining you have to do with a lender the better

So far 100% paid in April and May. I'm hoping everything will settle/get back to normal soon. My tenants are very responsive about and changes. We try to work with them. So far so good.

I definitely do not have the time to create one but will definitely consider this in the near future.

Come Network, learn, build your business with seasoned professionals and those brand new to the business.

@Kevin Gamboa I have heard that if she is secured a job within the same field she has been in for the last few years it would count. I would suggest shopping the loan around if you get nos from a lender.
