Hello, I am new to the BiggerPockets forum and looking to purchase my first investment property this year.

Hi everyoneIdk how to feel about this.In 2021, I purchased a property that used to be a duplex.

I purchased this 8-week Momentum package two weeks ago and am still waiting for the Zoom Meeting information, as it starts tomorrow at 2:00 p.m. 

Maybe it’s just gut feel, but for some reason It FEELS like these two scenarios will provide excellent opportunities moving forward, while fishing for notes to purchase at significant discounts to current principal enough to yield sufficient returns doesn’t seem as promising.  

@Daniel GrantzRecommend 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?

And I don't think anyone else will be able to get a loan if you decide to sell it in the future - which obviously impacts its value.Yes, you can do Conventional, FHA, VA, and USDA loans to purchase existing or new manufactured homes. 

Consult with an attorney to provide a purchase and sale agreement in your respective state with an assignment exhibit included. 

In August 2022 I was with a group of investors at a property we had recently purchased in Costa Rica.

Purchase price: $530,000 Cash invested: $100,000 My journey into short-term rentals began after years of investing in long-term properties, but it was a podcast that opened my eyes to the incredible potential returns of STRs.
