I'm going to be looking to get my realty license primarily to benefit my own investing ventures rather than actively looking to take on clients as a stream of income.

Well....This kicked up quite the storm with the seller's attorney (a divorced attorney) and he basically scared his client into the horrors of getting tenants out, so the seller outright canceled the Transaction.

I have clients all the time tell me "closing costs is super high!".

Congrats on taking the first step, usually people get hung up on only one strategy, and the best way to start your real estate investing journey is house hacking with lower down payments and interest rate since it is a new primary residence, especially since you can probably rent out your primary and cash flow when you move out.I'm a local investor and realtor here in Denver metro, and I've found success with house hacking here in Denver for myself (rent by room, Airbnb, Section 8, LTRs, etc) along with my clients too.

.- Tourism and Hospitality Businesses: Some local forum post mention that Cookeville has a strong tourism and hospitality industry, which could drive demand for furnished short-term rentals and extended stay hotelsI also checked to see what other listings are available and found about 4 comparable listings ranging from $1300-1500/month.

For my clients I use One Guard Home Warranty...

I am also a real estate agent in the area and constantly have people looking for this sort of thing, so it would be likely I'd be able to sell it to my own client in the future.What am I missing or should I be thinking about here?

🏠PradeepHi Pradeep,A lot of our clients invest in the Allentown/Bethlehem area for cashflow.

Most contractors that will screw you do the same thing to all their clients. 

@Steven Taylor I just posted a unit for rent for a client here in central OH, and it was at the top end of what I thought we could get.
