@Alecia Loveless I have another thought regarding this post for the original question.

Can someone give me a checklist of some sort that would help me on my first rental property to make sure am as prepared as I can be?  

Hey there - this is my first post and all. I'm curious if anyone here has experience buying in the Springfield, MO area and if you'd be willing to share your experiences. Southwest Missouri is a market that I'm most i...

1) Yes I thought that maybe the best route an MTR. 2) still building cash reserves and trying to figure out a good number. 3) No strong experience in the area, I would look to hire someone to manage.4) I was thinking multi unit rents can pay for property and one unit can be STR or MTRWould love to coordinate a game plan

Whatever you decide to go with, if you go cheap just prepare yourself that you'll probably never touch it up well unless you have a leftover can.

Thanks in advance and would love to hear your thoughts.

Those Ohio houses do be cash flowing…I’d love for a more experienced investor to chime in with their thoughts. 

Second I’d check his credit history with similar thoughts in mind.  

If you want more specific feedback on the current deal you’re looking at, feel free to DM me and I can give you my honest thoughts. 

Any inisght or thoughts?
