If you have doubts get the extended warranty. 

Each lender gave me a different answer about the terms of the loan such as required down payments, max loan amounts, and a few other things.

Managed to steer clear of the fraud in Metro Detroit, but did get interviewed by the FBI once.

Can anyone provide insight on the average cost of insurance for Airbnbs with pools in the Boston area?

I love the idea of fix & flip right now @Abigail King, especially right now here in Chicago and I am sure it is similar for you in central Illinois -- it's winter so there are way less buyers and if you can get under contract soon you can likely rehab over the winter months and hit the spring market!   

When investing in real estate, having multiple exit strategies is key.For a single investment property, make sure the numbers work for both scenarios: 1️) If you decide to sell the home, the deal should produce a solid return. 2️) If you need to rent it out, the rental income should cover expenses and provide a profit.Flexibility is what saves you when things don’t turn out as planned.

Ideally I would like the rent my property for the next 2-3 years.

They will be the ones that will get you into the deal.

Every way of valuing the property though is going to end up with similar numbers.

But well done getting your foot in the door.
