I assume we'd start on 1099 basis at least for a while until we feel stable enough to offer employment. 

I am in Vegas so the market is somewhat stable and has good demand so selling isn't too difficult here. 

Just joined these forums so hopefully this is in the right thread.I work freelence and W2 work and I want to invest in real estate next year. The main thing that has held me back in the past is that my income can some...

I've read (all my knowledge is theoretical) that tenants on government assistance can be really rough on properties (I also see that as painting with a broad brush) but the government assistance side of that is pretty stable income, and it doesn't seem terribly difficult to raise rent either, just requires 60-days notice instead of 30. 

I agree that higher rents generally attract more financially stable tenants but it doesn't mean lower vacancy rates.

As for cash flow, from sales; probably in year two and three which should match the timing for the housing  market to reset past bottom of market and on to the stable appreciation side again.

I know these aren't products on the shelf, but I have definitely seen off market quadplexes in North Miami with a cap rate of 6-7.5%+ turnkey. 3-5% is what SFH are renting for in this area, I have been looking at the inventory for a while.

I expect mortgage rates to remain within the same range as we have seen throughout 2024.Prices and rentsAssuming interest rates remain stable for the remainder of the year, given the sub-one-month inventory for both sales and rentals, I expect the prices and rents to continue to rise for the remainder of the year.

I would simply have left a welcome kit for each renter that included some shelf paper, toilet paper, and a new milky white shower curtain, plus a small bag of Purina if they have a pet.
