@Anna RamashkevichRecommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.So, when investing in areas they don’t really know, investors should research the different property Class submarkets.

That’s how I started, and it’s a great way to get your feet wet in the industry without overextending yourself financially.

Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a Class A property in Class D area, what quality of tenant will you get?

I am ready to get the ball rolling on the road to financial freedom.

Who monitors financials?

You're missing a BIG ONE.As an investor, there should be a Step Zero: Analyze the financials!

By leveraging our partnership with Billy Medlen, we secured funds for both the purchase and the $74,114 renovation, ensuring the project was completed without financial strain.

Still, there has to be a shared motivation to grow financially and a shared understanding of the risks involved with the particular investments you are looking at.This should be obvious, but I know from talking to investors for over 30 years that it's not.It's very difficult to be a successful real estate investor if your spouse or partner is not on board.

.### FinancingMake sure you have your financial matters in order.

Here are the Positives:Upfront Payment: The tenant’s offer to pay the full year of rent upfront, along with the deposit, shows a commitment and provides financial security for you in the immediate future.At least She was Honest in Her Communication: The tenant has been transparent about her situation, which can be a positive sign of reliability and sincerity.My Negative Concerns:Her Future Financial Stability: It's only a one-year lease, if her medical condition and financial condition should worsen (Heaven forbid), you may have to face her wanting out of the lease earlier than the 12 months and eventually you may be faced with having to decide not to renew the lease (after her 1 year contract is expired) based upon the sad news of her condition becoming worse, (Heaven forbid).
