As a novice in the real estate industry and property management, I found this post insightful.

Being a novice Landlord can also cost you a lot.Cheaper doesn't mean you'll make more money.Start by going to www.narpm.org to search their directory of managers.

You're a novice, and you shouldn't be buying the very low end properties. 

You, a novice (nothing wrong with that), are being asked to provide a small portion of the funds needed to make this deal work for someone and won't be involved in the day-to-day or even monthly management of anything. 

Given Texas has no state taxes I was feeling inclined towards Texas as I plan to be an employee of my own company , but I am open to other options.I am a total novice on the subject of forming an LLC and have no clue how much it can cost and if there will be any issues if I decide on not pursuing this route at a later time, will appreciate any direction

I am a pretty novice buyer my self being only 20 years old.

But I'm not even sure a complete novice could confuse the interest deduction on a primary residence with the purchase of an additional investment property.

A lot of novice STR investors will be "hitting the panic button" soon as bookings/rates continue to fall.

After listening to the last few episodes of seeing green, I know that market conditions have changed, deals are harder to make for a novice, and bad ones are harder to recover from now. 

I am trying to network and acquire funds for purchases since a DSCR loan is 25% for me as a novice investor.
