I have three rentals here and it wasn't until about 2.5 years ago that rents finally went up.

I was originally ok with both renting it selling and now I feel like this could be a either a fantastic middle ground, or a hole I know nothing about and could fall into.I am DEFINITELY willing to look I to podcasts and books as well if you have any ideas of where to go :)

We made our final offer on Friday, Sept 14th.

Any recommendations for books to read or sources of information?

Hello to this great community, I'm glad I finally found a community around real estate.Well to introduce you, my name is Stelios 32 yo from Heraklion, Greece(Crete Island), married with 1 kid.As for Real Estate, right now I'm working on buying 2 studio apartments in my area(Heraklion).According to my newbie research in the area, the market in my town must be right now in phase 1 but I'm not 100% sure, to be honest.Bureaucracy alone is one hell of work in my country and I already work 3 months on fixing papers, waiting for tax systems to unlock so we can get some tax papers needed and much more things...Well to consider numbers, the 2 apartments are in the center of my town and they are both sold at the deep discount of 23600€ right now if you ask me this is a very rare price.
