As a medium-term rental, you'd be in better position to be connected with Insurance Company that way.  

I currently have around 20k cash for a down payment and that is steadily increasing so I want to pull the trigger soon.I'm interested in Fort Wayne for a few reasons:- I have some family in the area (they won't be involved, but have some general knowledge of the area)- Decent schools- Low crime- Airport- Low pricesAny advice or connections are welcome as I am completely new to this.

I would like to get connected with more private lenders in different target area preferably Huston Texas  I can get you in touch with great Lenders here in Houston!

Connecting with investors is a great move too; it’s one of the best ways to gain real-world knowledge and build a strong foundation for your journey.What kind of investing are you most interested in?

I'd love to connect with local investors to hear about their experiences purchasing their first properties and the lessons they learned.
