Keep in mind of the I/O(payments/period) and game plan on how fast you'd like to pay it down. 

First house in 2021 - no internet to search at that time, remember going to realtor offices and seeing magazines and talking on phone with them about properties available and driving by them as there was no google street view.

Learning from agents commonly working with investors is your next opportunity to find a mentor.To be honest, I wouldn't try to find a mentor from random investors on the internet.

If you can be in the new build STR game at $800k plus, you are getting equity at close, which is a bit mind boggling. 

Truckee has some tight STR laws and if you're in that game I'd stay.  

Howdy, I have been in the game for about 10 years now and have mid seven figures of real estate assets. 

Assuming your property is in Utah (like your profile indicates), here's the state law from a basic internet search:In Utah, a tenant who abandons a rental property without notice is liable for the lesser of the following: The rent remaining on the leaseThe rent plus the difference between the fair rental value and the agreed-upon rentThe cost to restore the property to its original conditionThe landlord can also remove the tenant's belongings and sell them if the tenant doesn't claim them within a reasonable time.

Hey @Marc Shin, so yes on the games.

Then connect with some hard money lenders (you can find some here on BP as well as some who are typing this right now) and connect with them to understand their product type, what they like to lend on and requirements.Hard money broker is all numbers game of making relationships and helping those that are looking for financing, it starts out slow but if you get with a few good borrowers and lenders it can be pretty decent money to be made.As an example we paid six figures last year to HM brokers. 

I would like to learn more about seller financing, I see a lot of information on the internet about seller financing but honestly I am just confused.
