If you are looking for some coaching on how to go about investing on your own then I have a couple of companies I can recommend based on your desire to grow your RE investing knowledge. 

Anyways, good luck on buying your first rental in 2024 😬Quite a snarky response from someone who has their hand out here for investor dollars, but cannot rise to comment on what deals they actually were or were not involved in, what their involvement was in the deals they claim to be involved in (including in this very thread) and what properties on their company's "portfolio" page are actually owned by that company. 

BONUS: If you have a v.a. your job is to wait for that v.a to set an appointment with you, so you would have more time with other businesses and, or your family.PRO tip on hiring a quality V.A. is to hire from a company.

I plan on getting a property management company to take care of it.

I REPEAT ALWAYS DO AN APPLICATION SO YOU CAN HIRE A COMPANY TO HAUNT/GARNISH THEM FOR THE NEXT 10 YEARS.

I've never had an appraiser who seemed bothered by the fact that stuck around during the walk-through (most of them are talkers and like the company) and never had an appraiser who didn't want my extra information (again, most of them were very appreciative of anything I had).
