Speaking of evolving perspectives, what I considered a "big deal" has gone through a serious transformation.

Some of the projects were with a local partner as well and then the managing chores were split between us.The lending perspective was stiff in the beginning, as I didn't have any experience at all, also no credit score, and that project was only by myself, so the leverage was low, but I could work on a low-price property to start.Fast forward 5 years, I have built a credit score with 2 credit cards under my ITIN of more than 650, and done 4 properties as experience.

While the perspectives he and others share are valid, they can sometimes turn into trash-talking banter, which detracts from the core values of BiggerPockets.

Nathan mentioned using a syndication site to push your listing to multiple sites at one time which is also something that I recommend in order to expose your property to as many sites as possible.Some things to consider to maximize the efficiency and giving a perspective resident a great experience from the beginning to having a scheduling link available in your description for specific days and times that you can show the property so that you can capture your leads wanting to tour the property without them having to wait for a response from you and scheduling a one off time.I would recommend investigating in having professional photography taken if you are leasing in a market that has a lot of competition since your photos will have your property stand out and drive traffic.Good luck!

Your background in healthcare and passion for travel and new experiences will bring a unique perspective to the community.

The biggest lesson I’ve learned from a macro perspective is to run your own race.

I did try and come up with every bad and good thing I could think of so that people are informed from my personal perspective so great to hear everyone's experiences.  

We are not white knights we are in business to make money on RE  not a charity or social workers.. so we do want to keep this in perspective you did what you needed to do so you could make a profit bottom line.

That will have an impact.That was my point about buying today with compressed rates vs buying years ago when rates were higher.Maybe you have some clients that brought before the GFC for a historical perspective.

This is a viable path from a 1031 perspective, but I would encourage you to look into what TIC really means.
