Your goal of acquiring your first single-family rental by early 2025 is both ambitious and exciting.A few thoughts as you navigate this market:• Local Insight: Since regional nuances can make a big difference, tapping into local brokers and contractors who understand the Hudson Valley and Catskills can provide a valuable edge when evaluating properties.• Creative Financing: Keep an open mind to creative financing strategies; sometimes thinking outside the traditional box can reveal opportunities others might overlook.On a related note, I help investors streamline their operations by generating quality leads and assisting with VA hiring, which might be useful as you build your team and network in the area.Looking forward to seeing your progress and sharing insights along the way.
