Hi All,I've used Launch Control for a few years, but the system has been down for a week and a half due to TCPA issues. I have no idea when/if they will fix their issues. Is there a TCPA compliant platform that lets m...

Of course, for 3, you want to have your financing lined up, but you don't complete the contingency until you are under contract and headed toward closing. 1, 2, and 4 all happen after you lock the property up.6 is the one you should focus on beforehand, especially if from out-of-state.

For example, making a larger down payment can help you lock in lower interest rates.

I would like to know which sites are reliable to do some market research on population growth, and income on zipcodes, and counties in Delaware.

Here are the Positives:Upfront Payment: The tenant’s offer to pay the full year of rent upfront, along with the deposit, shows a commitment and provides financial security for you in the immediate future.At least She was Honest in Her Communication: The tenant has been transparent about her situation, which can be a positive sign of reliability and sincerity.My Negative Concerns:Her Future Financial Stability: It's only a one-year lease, if her medical condition and financial condition should worsen (Heaven forbid), you may have to face her wanting out of the lease earlier than the 12 months and eventually you may be faced with having to decide not to renew the lease (after her 1 year contract is expired) based upon the sad news of her condition becoming worse, (Heaven forbid).  

I have a reliable contractor who has done flips, I am also a licensed agent and know my market.

We keep the main house separate by locking the door between the bedroom and our living area, so guests only have access to their room.

Start small - get yourself a househack, learn from your own experience of owning the rental property you live in, continue to educate yourself with reliable resources, and then worry about the next home.Having just one solid investment will put you ahead of most Americans than trying to find a way to buy 10 doors out of state in an area you don't even understand. 

That GC that won't rob you, be reliable, care about his/her work, work with you on draws. 

I purchased a property before that had way below market rents that were locked in for a year and after a year I raised those without doing any work and was able to get them to market rent.
