Personally, having short-term rentals as neighbors is one of our fears.

So many people on YouTube / Social media like to skew numbers and fear monger to get clicks.

@Maria G.I would rather have to make an exception than to manage my properties out of fear.

If there was no fear of accusation of favoritism/discrimination, I would process every application and take the tenant that appears to be the best tenant and not necessarily the first that met our minimum qualifications.

There could be a lot of reasons for selling right now, but the most prevalent is capitalizing on a hot market and a billion potential house hackers.

I say “new” because I was on my way to purchasing real estate 2 years ago until fear, analysis paralysis and just fighting myself in my own head helped to excuse myself from buying long distance rentals to complete my goal of financial independence.

If you fear inflation, take out loans.5.

Additionally, and probably more importantly I was using the fear of legal implications as an excuse not to go out and figure out what to do next.So here's what I've now decided to do.

I can be a minimalist so I have no fear of living through it.

As a newbie, I've read tons about the process from deal analysis to closing but getting over the fear factor was my biggest hurdle.
