The internet leveled the information asymmetry and I visited all the houses I wanted during the open houses. 

This was very informative and helpful.

I'll try to be as brief as possible while still sharing the relevant information.  

The guy who listed did not have the rental info, so I have to figure how to get that information.

I do not have a lender right now, and I will need the 12-month rent history as well as various metrics on the property such as insurance quote (which needs property information in order to obtain), existing debt, and purchase price (which would be established while making offers).

Keeping myself informed and fingers crossed, as that feels like about all I can do at this point in time.   

Thanks Reese, I will definitely take a look at your posts for more information, I’ve been reading multiple real estate books in the last couple of weeks, but definitely will leverage from your experience!

Understanding the market trends, neighborhoods, and property values will greatly benefit you in making informed decisions.

When looking for options for something pre-fab to plop on our lot, we keep seeing things about Amazon homes and they seem super affordable, but I don't see a ton of information on them and how to plan for the house arriving.

I hope you find some useful information and best of luck in improving your personal finances and starting your investing career. https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/25/topics/589...
