However, understanding all the costs of buying a real estate investment property will help you avoid costly mistakes.Buying a rental property, holiday home, or property to flip can yield short-term and long-term financial gains.

It's an active business, not passive so I believe that requires continually evaluating the property, adjustments to decor, etc may be needed as well to make sure I'm fully optimizing the property.I have a lot of home renovation experience from my own personal home and my LTR's already so I'm very used to this kind of work.

These loans are tailored for investment properties and can help clients maximize cash flow without the typical income verification hurdles.

I'll then list my properties on the high end of whatever I think fair market rent is.

But before I give you my play-by-play, let me first overview what this concept includes for anyone new to property management or owning rental properties. 

So basically I'm at risk of the tenant damaging my property and not having a way of going after her because she is not signed to the lease. 

About to close on my first investment property in the coming week, 4-unit in outside of Madison, WI.

I let people know what type of property I'm looking for and continually look for potential deals myself.

I am excited that I am finally preparing to purchase my first investment property!

Would like to keep the property for down the road, but realizing I might be better off to get a place in town with more space and try to turn this place into an investment property for the time being instead.
