Not sure if you have a single STR or manage a portfolio, but I’m only managing one STR right now, and wondering how to set up that kind of payment?

Taking small, manageable steps now will help you make informed decisions when you're ready to invest.Good luck!

A great way to get started if you currently have a W2 job is to buy a house hack like a duplex or a fourplex where you can move into one of the units and continue to rent/manage the other units.

Spend a little more money than you might have been planning to, buy in a better area (i.e. not a “turn key” 100k house off the mls), and self manage.

I am currently an Asset Manager for Multifamily Deals as my W-2 job and looking to buying my first deal in College Station/Bryan Area.Anyone I can connect with to pick their brain on different investing strategies? 

Ease of management?

From what I've heard, local banks are sometimes more flexible than the big guys.A buddy of mine managed to snag a HELOC on his rental property, which isn't always straightforward, but it opened doors for him.

@Alba Cheung,your property manager should have already handled this and you should not be involved.

Will it pay the full PITI plus Capex, management fees, maintenance etc?

@Chris Seveney We don't plan to make money by managing the fund.
