This is my first investment property and I was wondering if anyone has recommendations for security cameras.

And I STILL have a ways to go to get my first social security check at 62.  ;-)  I have 8 SFR, all in A- to A areas.  

Cameras, security system, motion lights, cage lock on hvac, etc.They were stolen cause it was vacant and had a for sale sign.   

I dont allow tenants to move in without first month rent and security deposit paid by cashier check .

But after an exchange - sign the purchase documents with one pen and pick up another pen to sign the refi docs :)Another strategy you could consider is reinvesting into multiple properties, where you purchase the first property cash (ensures some security and concentrates the equity) and the second property with a mortgage.

That’s an incredible deal—congratulations on securing 100% seller financing!

Quote from @Kevin Rodriguez: After numerous unsuccessful attempts to secure a deal to cohost, I’ve decided to adopt a new strategy.

More people see your property, the higher likely hood of securing a tenant in a quick amount of time (all things equal).

The seller was motivated to close fast, allowing us to secure the deal and set the stage for a profitable resale.

Before you know it, the whole portfolio is paid off by age 65-70, and you’ve got financial freedom without relying on Social Security.
