Meghan,Congrats on almost crossing the finish line!

I’ve been jumping around the entire country since day one lol.

What was your plan to manage the property especially when you are not living in that area/ country.

I am hoping the cash flow will match their numbers in first year (fingers crossed) and all the "other expenses" will start from 2nd year onwards.

Crossing my fingers!

With broad, high-level criteria, you may be able to easily cross of a number of neighborhoods where the numbers simply do not make sense (assuming you already have your buy box nailed down).

The most likely main focus of many congressional hearings on this nomination will be on how to address the affordability crisis in this country.

Have also seen many posts from around the country with investors having the same issues. 

One land speculation I bought 4 acres in sonoma County CA ( wine country) in 96 for 27k it was unbuildable at the time ( could not get a septic system on it) Well city grew to us The Graton Casino comes in right across the street and we sold a few years ago for over 2 mil to a land assemblage investment company.

We’ve since implemented stricter due diligence practices, like deeper tenant screening, verifying payment histories, and cross-checking financials with third-party records.
