I would start (as mentioned above) by confirming with the city. 

Many started off in 2010 - 2019 with downhill terrain and the wind at their back.

Make the start date of the lease contingent and effective upon closing. 

If you don't own a primary residence I'd start there.

You'll find everything you need to get started in the forums.

The best way to start in rentals is by buying in your own area.

Quote from @Clifford Pereira: Hi, my wife and I started an Airbnb in Sacramento, CA, this year and are new to real estate investing.

other posters have started threads saying they're going to buy STRs for tax savings... and this doesn't make sense to me.  

Start with great theming, keeping in mind the current trends taking place at the parks.

Hi, pre foreclosure in all of its permutations, before the bank sends Notice of Default (NOD) or efter which is state even county dependant but often starts a 4 week clock till the trustee auction are the 2nd most difficult deal scenario and IMHO only experienced investors should bother, the 1st most difficult deal scenario are bidding at the court house steps on lord only knows what is being auctioned off sometimes even 2nd mortgages, you need to do so much home work to attempt to reduce your risk at the court house steps...Pre foreclosure no one talks about these issues, always about the nice sounding stuff like "motivated seller" get a good deal etc etc both are usually not the case.- 95% of folks in pre or post NOD want to stay in their house, keep their house inspite of them 100% will loose the house at the auction.
