I am a business owner which I have managed to build and scale successfuly it is typically an overnight venture (Commercial Cleaning.

Also, before you start any new ventures I would consult your CPA to make sure everything is structured appropriately for what your goals are.

I do not personally know anyone in short term rentals here but I venture that they would do real well on spring garden st as well as the areas surrounding the coliseum.

Good luck with your venture!  

I did ponder some type of joint venture with another person who IS able to house hack but doesn’t have the cash/experience/confidence to buy her first house yet.

.- Find a solid Attorney that knows how to set these ventures up, and a good accountant to keep everything straight- Network, network, network. 

Also make sure you get with an attorney who normally does this type of work, so you have a solid loan package that best protects you in the event the loan goes south - the borrower normally pays your legal fees for doc prep, so that wont be a cost you need to bear.Best of luck starting your new venture!

My wife is joining me in this venture, so that is fantastic, but...How many of you have made the leap from Corporate America, or any other job, to REI.

My current market is Rhode Island as I live here and want to understand a small state before venturing out across the country if ever at all. 

@Rob Roham, Congratulations on venturing out to syndication.
