before you go searching for higher priced HML.. check with a local credit union or COMMUNITY bank..

Purchasing a turnkey would hopefully mean you can still dedicate your time to your job and child.

A real estate professional can use real estate losses to offset W-2 or other income, but you would need to meet both the:1.750-hour rule – You must spend at least 750 hours per year in real estate activities.2.50% rule – More than 50% of your working time must be spent on real estate.Since both of you have W-2 jobs, it might be difficult to meet these requirements unless one of you dedicates significant time to real estate.Another option could be buying multiple rental properties.

I want to start my own someday, since I have 20 years of management and community management.

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

Hello BP community! 

Good afternoon Bigger Pockets, my name is Alejandro and I have just joined this community.

Welcome to the BP community!

With a remarkable three-year revenue growth of 2,326%, it’s no surprise they’ve made such an impressive mark.RentRedi has been on fire this past year, hitting milestone after milestone—from expanding their platform with new features like RentRedi Credit Boost to forming a groundbreaking partnership with the National Association of RealtorsⓇ.As part of our BiggerPockets community, we love seeing our partners succeed, especially when their growth reflects their commitment to helping landlords and renters thrive.

Howerver, I have resrvations about how this will impact the community's living standards as the development will immediately border some neighborhoods and could bring unwanted environmental impacts and noise.
