If you find someone at a REA or other investor meetup group that is currently in this space it can make your first time go much smoother. 

One thing that not many people talk about too is how there is disincentive for current homeowners to curb affordability. 

Consider population trends, job growth, and economic stability in these areas.2.

I think investors see it the same way and invest that way too leading to bumps in prices if they start to see a trend.   

The rebound in single-family home sales is impressive, but what really catches my eye is the inventory growth and the trends in townhomes and condos. 

I do not currently have any rentals.

I’m weighing two options for our housing situation and would greatly appreciate your advice, given the complexities involved.1.Renovate and Buy Another Property•Invest to renovate our current home adding a bedroom to the house given our family outgrew the house.

But if your goal is to cashflow positive from the Day 1, you may find it very challenging due to current day interest rates, high cost of construction and the fact you won't have the efficiencies of a seasoned developer building at scale.

I have landlord policies for my rental properties in TX and AL states, but I am not able to get an umbrella policy form my current insurance company, because I do not have car insurance and primary residence in US, as I am not a resident in US.

I currently work with investors looking to build their portfolio with single-family, long-term rentals while managing for them on the back end, making is hands-free for the investor to still work their W-2 job and live their everyday lives and spend it with family, hobbies, etc.
