@Jose Mejia this is pretty simple to do. 

@Frank Pyle yeah, this is pretty normal and the type of home you use isn't of consequence. 

I have found that it does pretty much everything I need it to to manage my portfolio.

It was a pretty good experience.

@Chris Mahoo many new investors don't take the time to properly understand RE investing.1) Many are using approaches from 2010-2018 when Class A property prices were so low from the Great RE Crash that an investor could cashflow and get pretty easy Class A tenants to manage.2) If you look at what investors were doing before 2008-2010, most were buying Class B & C rentals.To make it worth while, an investor either needs to Fix & Flip or invest & hold rentals for 10+ years.- Over a 10 year period cashflow will increase as rents increase (rents typically rise faster than property taxes, insurance, etc.)- The property should be appreciating, if purchased in a good location, increasing the owner's equity/wealth.- Rents will be paying the mortgage off, increasing the owner's equity/wealth.- If you hold a rental until death, you can pass it on with a stepped-up cost basis, limiting captial gains if then sold (limited by inheritance tax limitations).Too many newbies on this site trying to replace their day job income via "passive" real estate investing w/o digging deep enough to understand how it really works.

I had an appraisal done for the refinance and it came back at 515k which seemed pretty good. now I have been in the home for a year so I can start renting it out for a decent amount of money that would pay the mortgage and I would get about 600 in rental income on top of paying the mortgage.

It's pretty much why I'm putting myself out there on here, which to gain insight on other's experiences with working a dual agent deal.

@Zach Howard you pretty much MUST hold it in an LLC if you don't have the proper visa or greencard.1) Many attorneys over-hype the benefits of an LLC for each property.

@Brian Dolbeare This is a "it depends" question for sure, but in most cases street parking is pretty common here.

The benefits of Kissimmee for a newbie is analyzing property potential is very easy - you will have a ton of carbon-copy comps to look at and the online estimators like Airdna can actually be pretty accurate.
