Prioritize your financial stability.

In 2022 the rents increased 12.1% year over year which was the 3rd highest in the entire country per https://www.axios.com/local/cleveland/2023/02/14/cleveland-rent-prices.

That does not require employment or job seasoning instead it uses the rents to qualify and you can take out up to 80% LTV cash.Use the cash to put down on the next 1-2 or more properties as long as the other properties are debt servicing themselves it opens up more opportuities to buy more future assets and increase your passice income.  

Once again, I had to ask my family for financial support—a daunting task after the first loss.

@Caryn FischerI agree with Jaron, you should definitely have a consultation with your tax accountant and/or financial planner before you do anything. 

Our goal is to provide you with as much information and resources as possible to start investing in some of the best markets throughout the US, and learn how to scale an investment portfolio over time to achieve your financial goals.I know I covered a lot in this somewhat lengthy response, but this is about as short as I can make it to cover many of the details about how our platform works.

I’m just getting started and looking to soak up as much knowledge as possible—whether it’s about finding good deals, managing renovations, or understanding the financial side of things. 

When getting new tenants I've found the increase to be much more. 

I look forward to learning everything there is to gaining financial freedom and becoming an investor. 

@Christopher HeidrichRecommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?
