Maybe it's in my head but sometimes there are two LVP advertised online with the same thickness, but in real life one feels obviously thinner/thicker.

I have been reading the online resources about getting started, searching the market, and even doing tours, but I am hesitant to jump in and buy a house as I have quite a large amount of student debt.

Networking, local meetups, door knocking, mailers, wholesalers, online forums specific to your area of interest.  

I came across one of these loan agreements online somewhere a few months ago, can't recall where I found it but it was clear in reading the loan agreement there was no language referencing the loan actually encumbering real property, it was just an unsecured loan.  

My recommendation would be to get approved as a Landlord, contact the director's office and request that an inspection be completed before a tenant is selected (sometimes they will do this as long as you select a tenant within 14 days - which you want anyways), and have an online application and screening resource in place.  

It looks like a great idea on the surface but the numbers don't stack up from a risk/return point of view as far as I'm concerned (it could be different for you depending on your return expectations).

I use QuickBooks Online for all of my clients.

We use DealCheck to underwrite deals and QuickBooks Online for everything related to accounting and budgeting.

I am currently working/studying on getting my RE license online.
