I feel it is important landlords know the rules and learn how to minimize the risk.

Make sure you feel comfortable, but keep in mind if you ask for too much (in comparison to other MTR hosts), you might lose out on guests. 

With each deal you do, you'll get more experience and knowledge which will help you be successful over time.If you have any other questions or need any recommended resources, feel free to DM.

Feel free to share any resources, tips, or even success stories you have related to being an assistant for a real estate investor.

Novice here, I've been looking into off-market deals but don't feel comfortable moving forward by myself.

As a person who has been burned by this inherent flaw, I feel it is my duty to make other landlords aware.

My husband and I are both full time employees and we do not have time to maintain our properties ourselves or deal with bad tenants.

Doing this from out of state and planning to hit the STR market starting June. what you quoted in Step 3 is surely ever newbie and mid level experience investor feels like.

The solo has advantages the ira doesn’t but comes with the requirement of self employment and no w2 employees other than spouse or partners in that business.  

Feel free to call me if you want to dig a little deeper into some stats.
