I don't know about you but I don't want to invest money where I'm treated second class, with all the consequences that go with that.

. 🎉 I’m still finalizing things with my lender, but before I move forward, I want to be 100% sure I’m covering all the key steps.Here’s the checklist I’ve put together so far:Home inspection – to catch any hidden issues.Appraisal – to confirm the property’s value matches the offer.Financing contingency – securing my loan approval without surprises.Title search – ensuring there are no liens or legal issues.Seller disclosures – reviewing any known problems upfront.Neighborhood research – making sure the area fits my investment goals.Are there any crucial steps I’m missing or anything you think I should focus on more?

I just want help or advice on building it from the ground up and not getting overwhelmed by all the options at once and take baby steps towards the bigger picture.

Gentrification all around.  

What I mean is, the payments made to the seller, is the total payments consisting of principle/interest, property taxes and mortgage insurance all wrapped into 1 payment and made to the seller?

In Tampa, some great spots to consider are University area, Seminole Heights, Ybor, West Tampa, East Tampa, Temple Terrace, and Town 'n' Country—all solid for long-term rentals.

Hope all goes well!
