Where/how are you preparing for / learning about these changes?

I signed up as a pro member a year ago, but just now making a new member introduction.My main reason that I am finally making an introductory post is that I am signed up for the May Rookie Boot Camp and assigned myself preparation homework to do some networking on the BP forum and to make an occasional post.My goal is to find my first cash flowing real estate deal in 2024, so this introduction is my first earnest effort to get out of my comfort zone and start connecting and learning from the voices of experience.Sincerely,Joe

Some items I think should qualify, such as: time spent monitoring rehab progress/talking to contractortime spent talking to vendors & placing orders time spent talking to PM/CPA/attorney regarding my properties;time spent reviewing statements/invoicestime spent preparing mortgage application,  tax filingtime spent writing contracts with contractors, PM, equity partners etc Some items I'm not sure.

You are probably better prepared than most and I wish you best of luck.

For the analysis of an arbitrage option, as well as other short-term rental opportunities, it entails a deeper review that not only involves understanding various market factors, but also the investor's estrategy and situation.

If not, then you're screwed.Also, if/when you re-finance are you prepared for rates to be what they are then which undoubtedly will be higher than 3% off of a new appraised price?

By reaching out to the city beforehand, you can ensure that you are prepared for the renovation process and avoid any potential complications that may arise.

You could experiment with a live-in flip to see if you like flipping houses and the skillset that entails.

Be prepared to make some visits to the city after you make your purchase. 

Can someone give me a checklist of some sort that would help me on my first rental property to make sure am as prepared as I can be?
