I've read a couple of Brandon Turner's books now and have been getting really into the mindset to start this journey.A couple major items I'm initially thinking of is where to start.

Year 2 had some large expenses, including some CapEx items (water heater, roof).

So you may buy one property with traditional financing, one all cash for a BRRR, and one with seller financing with a lower down payment (for example).

If the credit items reported are up to date with no late payments that is generally good enough for me.

I offer a traditional coffee pot for guests who drink a lot of coffee, a single cup pour over cone, a Chemex and even a Bialetti at my properties.

Aaron - thanks for the post ...wedge area off Monroe is solid .....make sure your financing is in place and lined up  before  beginning to property shop ....traditional lender have  programs that allow as little as 15% down if the  rental propety is a  1 unit 

Yes, I’m using TheGuarantors platform for long term and Waivo for midterm and short term tenants instead of a traditional deposit. 

Louis because of the price $60k to $100K usually 3-2 bedrooms and 2-1 bathrooms to put for section 8, but a lot of people said bad things about it that make me scared We have the same screening process for Section 8 as we do for traditional tenants.

Pretty solid points here, I would also like to add refinancing with a non-traditional DSCR based loan can assist with getting access to cash quickly as there are many lenders that have a lower seasoning requirement. 

I have one in NE FLorida, he used to own 300 doors, I call him and run my deals by him, I am hoping to get smarter about deals and have him point out items to me SO THAT he can manage them for me, he manages 20 doors now instead of owning.
