Any advice you would give to someone first starting out?

If timing permits you can get a tenant into your home that you'd be leaving.If you are going to move into the new home you have a lot of options for better rates and lower down payments.Matt HowardNorthpointe Bank616.552.5730https://www.northpointe.com/home-lending/get-started/matt-ho...https://www.zillow.com/lender-profile/matt%20howard/

What are you thinking to get started in investing?

For property A at $900K with 4100/mo rent, would it make more financial sense to sell the property, take the proceeds and start a new investment in either stock or real estate?

I wouldn't start investing in the US if you have no plans on coming back from living in China.

MAREI meets next week - we have a new meeting place starting on the 12th at the Double Tree. 

I was under the impression that I would still need 20% down for DSCR even if I owned the property.

Finally, if you cannot find sold properties to compare within the timeframe or distance you can go out a bit to find properties to compare.This will get you started with finding values for residential 1-4. 

Currently have a great job but want to start acquiring  2-4 unit complexes.

Hi Moshe,I too am looking to start my real estate journey.
