Get yourself known, it all ends up there, people needs to know who you are and what you do.

I’m getting re-acquainted with the BP community after purchasing my first house hack in the Pittsburgh area, and would love to make some connections with other like-minded young professionals and investors in the area.And if there’s anyone out there who’s just getting started and looking to make the jump to buy their first property, I’d love to offer up advice, share my network of contractors in the area, and answer any questions that I can from my experience over the last 6 months!

[In my scenario below, I was thinking about a share of the equity upon refi (what @Jack Pasmore called "the kicker" or share of the upside) since I don't think the seller would agree the property values at only $450K, even though that's what the rent and NOI say]@Jeremy Dugan In my experience, such a "kicker" is only present when the other party is an "investor" rather than the "lender".

And Buyer's Agents.....in my last several experiences, of my own and friends, relatives, etc....it is usually the buyer that finds the property nowadays.

I have around 8k saved up and my goal by the end of the year is to close on my first rental property!

Triple net lease property at the end of the lease periodwhat do you think? 

There is no additional valuation for the STR business.In the end, past performance is not an indicator of future success.

Would love to learn from your experiences.4.

My last few BRRRRs I ended up with negative equity, even though after a full gut rehab, still worth it in a market full of old houses.
