@Tom S.Tom - as a fellow investor from VT, what bank did you use out of curiosity?

Those taxes accrue at 18%. 

And the only way to gain the confidence is to gain the knowledge and experience.One final note, as you go through these exercises, let your curiosity run.

I also opened a Discover cash back credit card, which I still use all the time and pay down before any interest accrues.

If you can be conversational with folks, you can also get feedback at the first showing (ie: out of curiosity, how does this compare to other properties you are looking at?). 

Interest is accrued at 8% interest-only based on the amount of money checked out at any given time.

Satisfies the curiosity, haha. 

I can help find active MLS listings here in NV that fit your criteria should you need.In our experience, single family properties have performed better in a buy and hold situation—they just accrue more in equity and appreciation in the long term.

Get a good reward card (Chase Sapphire, CapOne Venture, airline one, etc) and the points accrue quite rapidly.

Just to add to their question with my own curiosity.
