I’ve never had this specific issue but mistakes like this are pretty common. 

Don't have any land specifically, although we've got a small town about 40 minutes north of Baton Rouge we've been investing in lately that seems to have some demand.

I'd estimate your cash flow after you pay the loan payment would be $600-$800, which a lender that understands investment real estate should give you some credit for on your DTI.As for a bank, I have a specific lender at NBI that I would recommend.

I have mostly heard about LTRs specifically in Indiana, Alabama, Texas, Michigan, and Ohio but I am open to hearing anyone's experience anywhere.

If I have specific questions about a transaction I’m doing or something like that, I just ask via email or phone call.

Are there specific factors you look for in an area to make sure it’s a good fit for this type of rental setup?

Would you share 3 specific things I should do during my "training period" (if it includes a book, which one)?

A good real estate accountant can save you thousands of dollars by leveraging entity selection and formation, tax deductions, cost segregations, bonus depreciation and tax planning.I recommend finding an accountant who specializes in real estate taxation, business taxation, financial planning and tax planning.You may want to consider working with your accountant remotely to expand your options.I would also recommend looking for a accountant willing to work with you throughout the year.

To say I am shocked is an understatement.Finally, when I sought out their tax strategy services, I specifically asked in the informational meeting if I wasn't acting a little prematurely, and if I should wait for my partner and I to be married in 2024 before making this investment, i.e. if tax strategizing would pay for itself in 2023 via significant tax refunds.

There should always be timeline contingencies factored into each projects specifics.
