Prioritize your financial stability.

MTR stands for mid-term rental.

When buying a laundromat, it’s crucial to evaluate the financials carefully.

As it stands, I live in the master bedroom, I have had 1 long term tenant that has been with me since the purchase and the other 2 rooms have been listed on airbnb and have found some temporary tenants through mutual friends.

Too bad you can't buy something owner-occupied, put 5% down with the best interest rate, live in it for 12 months (and fix it up), rent it out and repeat the cycle.Here's some other info you might find useful:----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

It could entice you to buy when you are not financially ready to buy.  

I'll let others chime in on their experiences, but from a motivational perspective, I think attending live events and getting the "conference high" is something that only happens through in-person connections and being in the same room with investors who are eagerly pursuing their real estate/financial goals.
