Soon I'll be purchasing my first ever investment property (Virginia) (MFH) and I honestly feel like I made a mistake.

If you’re feeling uneasy about the potential headaches, you might consider a local property manager who specializes in room rentals or shared housing.

Hello @Christine Vasquez,Many investors choose real estate markets based on gut feelings or popular trends. 

To set the stage, I'm owner of a short-term rental property in the Poconos in PA and we use a property management company for bookings, maintenance/cleaning, guest management, etc.This past weekend we had a guest booking but when the guests arrived Friday evening the house had no running water, though it had been running fine earlier in the day when the Property manager (PM) was at the house to give a final check and leave the welcome packet.

If you want more details, feel free to reach out.

Feel free to reach out for some recommendations. 

Either that, or 0% credit cards combined with the personal loan if you feel that you can liquidate the property before the credit card intro periods expire. 

Feel free to PM me @Eric Johnson.

As agents we tend to feel the pulse of the market shifting before the data hits the newsstands.

I feel confident it is low risk and mitigated with the added deposit.
