My husband and I like many here, are so thankful for this community as we navigate our real estate journey.

we have raised $30M last two years with no wealthy family and here is what we can share with the experience:1. its all about networking and educating people on what you do.

In general medical professionals are looking for smaller units (studio/1 bedrooms) not 2+ bedrooms- In order to understand corporate demand you should research the types of corporations in the market and figure out if they bring traveling / temporary workers to the area because not all corporations do- You didn't mention colleges but if there's higher education nearby this can also be a driver of MTR demand.

That education/experience is worth more than whatever money is lost.

They prevent bedbugs from entering or escaping mattresses.Routine Inspections: Regularly check mattresses, bed frames, and furniture for signs of bedbugs (small black spots, eggs, or live bugs).Furniture Choice: Choose furniture with metal or plastic legs instead of wood, as bedbugs are less likely to infest non-porous surfaces.Bedbug Traps: Place bedbug traps under bedposts and other furniture legs to catch any potential bedbugs before they become a problem.Professional Cleaning: Schedule routine deep cleans between guest stays, and if you ever suspect bedbugs, hire a pest control professional immediately.Clear Guidelines: Educate your cleaning staff on how to spot bedbugs early, and encourage them to report any signs immediately.These steps will help you set up a smooth, well-managed STR that’s ready to generate revenue while maintaining a good relationship with your LTR tenants.

Contracctors jack up the scope and cost mid rehab, disappear for 3 weeks, inspector takes 3 weeks each.This is why every flipper needs lots of education AND to hook up for every rehab with an experienced local rehabber/flipper/or rental rehabber to check in on your project to give you tips and helps.Where can you cut corners and where not to.   

Its time where i want to start my journey into real estate, now my father is more than willing to pass me the torch because he is also working a full time job.

Do not educate them on why it is insufficient or they will go get what you tell them they need.

Gabriel, I work and educate investors nationwide but I do have to say - CT is one of the most tightly-knit investing communities in the country.

Hope this helps and best of luck on your journey!
