I understand where you are coming from as we always did our taxes on turbo tax as well until we purchased rental properties. 

With this being your first purchase, you may want to consider a property that's not being sold at auction. 

Hi Thu - Congrats on your first STR purchase—so exciting!

I definitely wouldn't sign a purchase agreement before seeing the property.

I have a question about purchasing a duplex and renting it out.

Some rehab loans offer 90% of the purchase price and 100% of the rehab costs.

I'm interested in purchasing land.

.- When handling insurance on previous subto, we purchased new insurance, canceled the old insurance which was part of escrow.

Purchase price: $90,000 Cash invested: $55,000 Triplex in SE Cleveland (D+ neighborhood)Purchased for 90 and saw 105 for valuation. 25% down plus closing costs and unit repairs has led to about 50-60k going into the deal.

I know for example we can fund up to 90% of the purchase and 100% of the rehab when we're funding the purchase and the rehab.
