Hey @Aaron Gordon congratulations on getting started on your real estate journey here in RI.Starting off with a live-in remodel is definitely a way to fast track your real estate experience.

If you're looking to get started in real estate investing, focus on building a sustainable "assembly line" that allows you to grow year after year.

I don't know what area you are in, but generally just take them to Small Claims Court.

Quote from @Gio Kattan: I would check with a local realtor that are doing deals in this area and local PMs in the area that deal with STRs to give you the answer on that! 

You would want to find a private money partner for this who wants in on the deal.

Btw one of the transactions was on an $800k house in an A area.

Quote from @Sharad Bagri: We are a few friends from California looking to invest in multi family real estate in Ohio.

Easiest and least costly is to go there and spend a week or so to get everything in order.Another one is to hire someone trustworthy and pay them to put it in their garage or in a storage unit for a month

@Gregory GadsonHi, I attended the Renatus 2 hour seminar in North CA last night.
