I'd also write into the lease that the first time YOU come, it is free; but after that they pay. 

There's no reason to go ALL financing or ALL cash, but to be strategic about how to use your funds to acquire more properties as opportunities present themselves.Hope that helps with your thought process.

I’m eager to learn the process and take actionable steps.I’m particularly interested in acquiring land and identifying creative ways to add value, whether through flipping, owner financing, or long-term holds.My long-term vision includes owning rental properties, possibly starting with a multi-family home where I can live in one unit and rent out the others.I’m also exploring opportunities in modular housing and small community developments to fill a growing demand for affordable yet modern housing solutions.Outside of real estate, I have a background in auto detailing and entrepreneurship, which has taught me the importance of quality, attention to detail, and perseverance.

At some point your just gonna have to jump, perfect is a process not a place.

I just write the property address on the receipt.I couldn't fit a different credit card for each property in my wallet.

Would a long-term rental be a better option just to get some experience with the home-buying process, before jumping into Airbnbs?

If you are in a high fire zone, the California Fair Plan is likely your best bet.It seems like SafeCo is not writing any new insurance in CA.The house is not in a high fire zone. 

Not essential but I've used it for other things and it's really cool when you are building out a new process, design, or work flow with your team as well.  

- FYI, most PMC's won't involve an owner in this process.
