You will find something that fits.Fear is simply one of the emotions you feel when dealing with the unknown and it's normal.Defining the problem and its potential consequences to determine how much risk you may want to tackle will definitely help.

Depends what type of neighborhood and risk level you're willing to tackle.

I get the sense that you will need to have the stomach for a major rehab and/or a less desirable tenant pool if you want to tackle MFHs in Indy.

I'm thinking about the leasing process and how to tackle it.

I definitely wouldn't make your first investment one that will be a big enough project that it takes 18-24 months to get a tenant in ... find something a little rough, that you feel comfortable tackling yourself that you can do in max 2-3 months and get a tenant in prior to the end of summer.

We’re not afraid of tackling a renovation projects and we’ve got a fantastic general contractor that we’ve worked with in the past.

Plus, another issue which I am not sure how to tackle - not only does the garage/ shed not meet setback, it is half way on the neighboring county lot!

Most of the work was done when I actually sat down with my wife and created a real budget plan to save money and tackle the credit.

It was a big challenge to tackle on my own, but I learned so much through rehab process.

@Jay HinrichsSo would you say to a new investor (understanding that there are different contributing factors) that I should start out with "regular" tenancy before tackling section 8?
