Since you don’t have a credit score yet, think about getting a secured credit card to build it up—it’ll be key for real estate financing.

To make this deal worthwhile, you’d need a lower purchase price, better financing, or higher ARV to secure a comfortable profit margin.If you need help structuring financing, let me know!

Always question what you see and don't take anything for granted.

She eventually got arrested and sent to jail right after I kicked her out so suing her for add'l damages above the security deposit amount would be easy to get the judgement but difficult to get paid back.

Do you prioritize competitive rates, flexible terms, or quick approvals when securing funding?

Due to the low dollar value of the loan, I was unable to secure DSCR funding or any business funding for said property. 

I've always been a bit of a "job hopper" and have worked in several different industries over the years (eg. healthcare, insurance, bartending, audio engineering, project management, adult corrections, and other security work).

You can find a rental property and secure it via conventional loan or dscr, either way both you’ll need around 20%, and let it do its thing until you get back stateside.

You're in the right mindset, and you’re already ahead just by thinking about securing your family's future.
