Everything you need comes in the kit for about $70.If you want a different countertop, for that small kitchen If you have the skills to DIY it I'd just pick out a new laminate that I liked.

Susan, that's why learning DIY skills is important.

Following Avery’s excellent STR episode, we decided to try something new and venture into an STR in the smokies.

Haha well I ant case of you want to venture further we are up here ready for you !

@Stone Saathoff had a great example of solid appreciation, and I would venture to guess consistent cash flow as well. 

The other strategy is to find partners to invest with you via a joint venture or syndication model.

Having a degree in the medical field would most likely guarantee me a higher starting wage as compared to my commerce degree option, therefore I would have more income to source into my own real estate ventures earlier on - just without the extensive real estate knowledge.

We may see a trend of young adults who had already ventured out on their own, moving back in with their parents in the near term.

I would also refer to Brian Heckmann, whom we've used for one complex eviction and have gotten consulting with on others when we went the DIY route but wanted a little backup.We purchased and studied the Nolo book "California Landlord's Law Book vol2 : evictions" (although an older version than currently sold on Amazon).
