I am new to this industry excited about getting started and to my make my first deal and start to build wealth for my family  Holla.

She’s currently not paying rent, and while she has some health issues and no stable income, she’s been communicative and open to general talks, with a possible option to vacate through a cash-for-keys arrangement, though this might take around six weeks and some hard work.I plan to rehab the property and eventually rent it out, potentially to a Section 8 tenant.

Its not hard to start , its getting to the finish line is the difficult part . 

Is it required for me to get any license/ certificate before I start renting.

We are budgeting for no rental cashflow so see upside if we can STR and additional upside when rates eventually and hopefully drop down for a refi.  

Where I’m Based & Where I InvestI’m based in Belmont, MA, and just getting started in real estate investing.

I started studying markets from Cleveland OH, Columbus OH, Dayton OH, Cincinnati OH, Indianapolis IN.

To start you need money, Your money or someone elses.

Snow: I have gone back and forth about what kind of rental I start with.

I eventually want to build on the lot but for the time being, I want to purchase it so that no else buys it first.
