Good luck and congratulations on your new home. 

Hi, welcome and great information, congratulations on your higher education achievement.

Congratulations on starting the new year by embarking your journey into the realm of real estate investing!

So if your using margin at let's say 12% interest rate, to do the mentioned S&P gaining at 8% or heck let's say 10%.... congratulations you just found a neat way to go a couple hundred thousand into debt.

Congratulations on your first purchase.

Quote from @Tanner Pile: @Benjamin YingEvery one has given some great advice! 

Hi, congratulations and if you have any questions about Ohio's real estate market investing.

If you can maximize all 3, then you've also created a very wide lead funnel, which is less common in multifamily properties.Maximizing "pets" means you're removing carpet, allowing at least 2 pets including cats and larger dogs > 50 lbs, access to a fully fenced-in yard or walking distance to a dog park, leniency on breed restrictions (depends on insurance, your risk tolerance, due diligence with pets during inquiry phase), pet friendly furniture (e.g. faux leather couch, low pile rugs if at all), etc.

@Charles Evans congratulations on making the jump! 

In my opinion, that is a riskier bet because you have to have a big pile of cash for contingencies.
