I’m wanting to be prepared and educated since I’m new to this and looking for advice.

The replacements often lack the experience.If you're looking for tax preparation only, without tax advice, then the worst times to look for a CPA are March-April and August-October.

@Colin Ford recommend getting experience with your RI duplex before going OOS.You should DIY manage the unit next door, so you LEARN about property management, the goog, the bad and the ugly.Then you'll be so much better prepared to invest OOS!

The revenue and expense categories line up with your Schedule E which makes it a breeze to prepare for filing your taxes and I like the reporting features, too.

Also, as I prepare for estimates, would be helpful to know where my in year deductions actually are.  

Its always nice to be prepared.

Submitting real offers that you feel confident actually closing on and having a strong sponsor to work with that has a track record will go much further towards you winning deals.In short, you can pursue larger deals right out of the gate if you want to, but generally expect that it'll take you longer to win one and make sure you have the right players on your team so that you're prepared to win them and to close them once you do.

I am tired of preparing for the worst... preparing for the worst is killing me slowly and I might not ever make it to experience the best.

It resonates deeply as I prepare to start my wealth journey.

But be prepared because you are probably dealing with a professional tenant.
