Hi BiggerPockets Community,I’m excited to join this amazing platform after reading about it in House Hacking Strategies.

I’ve done my research with (reading books, podcasts, etc) but still feel like I’m not doing enough.

I have been listening to the Bigger Pockets podcast for years ever since I was in High school I have read a few of the classic real estate books.

We don’t know any PMCs to recommend in the area mentioned, but since selecting the wrong PMC is usually more harmful than selecting a bad tenant, you might want to read our series about “How to Screen a PMC Better than a Tenant”:https://www.biggerpockets.com/member-blogs/3094/91877-how-to-screen-a-pmc-better-than-a-tenant-part-1-services-and-processesWe recommend you get management contracts from several PMCs and compare the services they cover and, more importantly, what they each DO NOT cover.

It's also good to read local business journals and visit the chamber of commerce website. 

I spent months reading, browsing forums and meeting with other investors to prepare.

Quote from @Anthony Vaganos: I will definitely make sure to read the loan agreement but that was told to me verbally by a conventional lender during my diligence work.

Read a few books on real estate investing to learn the power of leverage.

I read the permitting process and it seems somewhat strict.

thank you for all the feedback its helpful.
