If you buy a house, you have to care for it.

@Ryan Duphorn  a  5 /2  and 1920 square feet IMHO isn't a good health care traveler accommodation unless you are in a area with a shortage of housing. 

What is the quickest and most feasible way to transition from living there to setting up this house for passive income: leaving a property manager or somebody to take care of it!

Identifying the right properties, executing renovations with care, and remaining cognizant of market fluctuations help investors transform undervalued homes into profit-generating portfolios.

Anytime you're involving the govt it's a hair pulling nightmare.

They keep different hours so be careful, however they were able to charge me $100 and get my series in place within several hours (stated as 24 business hours).I wish 1. 

Owner only gave us $2k to work with, so we took care of Health & Safety issues (to avoid lawsuits) and did our best to spread out the rest to make the property look "decent".

If you spot a rule-breaker, just tag @moderators, and we’ll take care of it.Again, welcome to the community—happy investing!

My thought is to help him out by going in 50-50 partnership for many reasons: half down payment, half capex expense, strong co-signer on loan, me being local to investment property to take care of little things that need attentions (he will be out of state for his job/I will have PM), etc.  1. 

I don’t care if you steal a property, high quality tenants will never sacrifice on being safe and feeling safe.
