just like I said, if I could have a mentor that guide me through the process I would love to be active managing the property.

Even when it seems like 48 hours won’t matter, you could lose out to someone who gets there first.

Places like Liberty/Claycomo/Gladstone in the Northland, Blue Springs and the Eastern side of Independence, on the East side of town, Olathe/Lenxa KS on the SouthWest side, and more. 

This will be my first foray into the universe of admitting pets so all feedback is welcome.I feel like as STRs get more and more competitive, being pet friendly seems to be a competitive advantage in some markets

I would then need to bring $85,000 + closing fees to closing which seems like the worst case scenario Is there an option I'm missing???

The disparity is even more alarming in Worcester, where median income has grown by 19.7 percent, while mortgage payments have surged a staggering 82.9 percent.It’s no surprise that home prices in Worcester have risen, but I didn’t realize the jump was so dramatic.What I’m seeing on the ground is that many of the buyers for multifamily homes (multis) in Worcester are coming from the east—places like Greater Boston.

Seems like an opportunity but looking for first-hand advice.

If you come across a deal like that give them the number that would work for you and maybe you can strike up a deal.

@Teahjsia FrazierTo build a portfolio and replace monthly income, consider strategies like leveraging your current home with a Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC), using FHA loans for low down payment, renting out your current home, using creative financing options like seller financing, private money lenders, or partnerships, building cash flow with smaller deals first, using the BRRRR strategy (Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat), minimizing expenses and maximizing savings, and continuously educating yourself through books, podcasts, and networking groups.
