Currently we are finalizing paperwork and figuring out what insurance we need and just trying to figure everything out all at once.

This is a good tenant of 5+ years, and I don’t want to cause unnecessary friction (I’m just trying to set up automatic systems for myself).

Try to understand the relationship and what's going go.  

For example over the last four to five years a lot of people went out and bought STRs thinking it was going to be a great investment only to find out that the numbers did not work a year later and needed to try to use it as a LTR to make ends meet. 

Try a Google search for managers or look for an investors group in the area that can provide personal recommendations.1.

As ground-up ADU builds gain popularity I hope we see some affordable options, like modular, but from what I'm seeing now the ROI just wouldn't be there.I'm trying to help spread the word about this law and compile as much information as possible so I can help investors capitalize on it.

Owners cannot recoup these costs through higher rents, meaning they are effectively being penalized for trying to improve their properties.Instead of discouraging responsible property owners who follow the permitting process and invest in meaningful upgrades, we should be focusing our efforts on ensuring that all renovations are done legally and safely.

The dumbest thing I’ve ever done was paying off my first two rentals and trying to pay off my primary.

From there, I try to figure out why this house isn't selling, and if I'm still interested I'll make an offer at a price that works at my numbers.Other than that, yes I think it is a great idea to dig deeper into more creative methods of finding deals - wholesalers, direct mail, door knocking, networking, etc.

Should I keep looking, or try to work with the more experienced ones, or sign with the newer realtor?
