Real estate investment is my future.This amazing voyage begins with setting personal goals and vision.

Or if you are able to connect to public water &  sewer, this would make the investment much easier.

The price-to-rent ratios are generally unfavorable, and a shortage of skilled tradespeople and reliable property management can hinder the success of buy-and-hold rental investments.

You can do less than 20% down (as low as 3.5-5%) if you intend to occupy the home for at least a year.2) There will be an HOA (homeowners association) which restricts rentals, so be sure to read the CC&Rs (governing documents) to ensure that your rental strategy is allowed, even if you intend to live there at first, eventually you'll be transitioning it to an investment property, so this will be important.

I'm interested in learning about rental property investment, looking to build a rental portfolio, exploring real estate investing to replace my income.

Hi Joshua,It’s great to hear you’re starting your real estate investment journey.

We don’t invest at 9% or higher.  

I would try not to tie up any of the principal in down payments.Personally, I had a family member do this same thing, but they used an investment portfolio as the collateral instead of real estate.If you play your cards right, this might be the only short-term money you ever need.Please let us know what you end up doing.
