Prioritize properties with rental potential, plan for reserves and tenant strategies, and stay patient as you network and learn.

I apparently did not hit submit yesterday so here goes.Are you planning on buying in East Rochester then? 

It would be good to talk to a lender to make a game plan and review your financials. 

Solar panels and backup battery system installed in 2022, I have a loan for the system so that would eat into any sales.I'm in San Antonio, Tx.

Very simple - tell them to call me if they can't figure it out.I would not tell the tenant what I was doing and if it was ever discovered that I had done it - I would explain that I did it as a standard safeguarding of my property - in case the original thermostat should ever fail while no one was there to monitor the space temperature - the backup thermostat would save us all from freezing damage.

Projected sale: 950-990k Replacement property budget: 990k - 1.1M Plan: rent out the replacement home until meeting the requirements, then move into it while renting out a portion of the home via short-term rental 

I just acquired one from a PM where they were charging a tenant a resident benefit package and a building protection plan.  

All depends on what your goals are and what market fits your game-plan/criteria. 

My suggestion to any one that are first time real estate investor in fix & flip, or planning to hold property for rentals, is to learn or read, understand about real estate financing first, build your assets and network or partner withsome has completed some projects in fix & flip and has some rental properties with positive cash flow within your immediate area before dving in to any project by youyrself.

@Hamidou KeitaTo build a duplex or ADU in Tucson, verify zoning regulations, obtain construction estimates, budget for unexpected costs, research market rent and vacancy rates, calculate ROI, consider neighborhood and property value trends, analyze construction timeline, consider exit strategy, and consider a backup plan.
