Quote from @Chris Seveney: @Zach EdelmanBe clear BP does not recommend companies - companies pay to advertise on BP and while BP I assume vets them - it’s still buyer bewareI am not an employee of BP but I want people to understand on BP and on most sites there are sponsors and affiliates but they may not be thoroughly vetted.

I'm not sure how experienced you are in the real estate world but one thing to remember when you are getting into RE investing is to have your team of people or as Brandon Turner from the Bigger Pockets Podcast calls it your CORE 41.

I look forward to meeting amazing people in this community!!

If a unit is $1500 without water and another unit is $1650 because it includes water that Averages $150/month with tenants that are not conserving because the LL pays the water, the $1500 unit will get many more people to look at it when trying to fill the vacancy. 

I saw someone post in a group who I think is a schmuck brag about hitting a specific figure for their training and I just shook my head - like wow - this person is a great sales person and just steals the same lines from the business book about working hard and throwing out some slick slogans - but man oh man - when real estate gets hard people move to being a guru - just look at FB ads right now - many are not funds anymore but how to raise money, how to do X.

Expect higher turnover as people renting rooms tend to move.

OOS investing is much harder than you think, very few people have succeeded at scale, usually it fizzles out.

However, most people wait at least 6-12 months just in case the IRS doesn't question it.
