As a beginner, you can learn a lot from your uncle with a few rentals in another state or a co-worker who's on their second house hack.

@William Johnny - I'm local to Philadelphia suburbs and have been investing in SFH for a while and within the past two years investing in small-mid sized multifamily.

However, I am dealing with a lot of 1031 exchanges and investors buying raw acreage quickly here in Colorado.

In certain Colorado markets, especially near popular tourist spots or cities like Colorado Springs & Old Colorado City, STRs have the potential to bring in higher monthly revenue, even if they require more management.

At first glance it appears they only serve Wy/ Co/ Mt but will give them a shout! 

Your options in this case are to:Decline their application.Accept them without references and take the risk, assuming everything else about them is stellar.Require a co-signer.Require an additional security deposit if that is allowed in your specific state.The option many landlords choose is No. 2: Accept them without references, asking for an additional security deposit.

Whether it's joint ventures, co-investing, or sharing insights, I'm always eager to connect with other investors who share my vision for success in real estate.My goal is not just to succeed individually but also to contribute positively to the real estate community by fostering growth, innovation, and ethical investment practices.

The development is nearing completion, and SFR units are already being leased before the Certificate of Occupancy (CO).

This is for all the 'co-own curious' folks out there.I recently started a project aimed at making it easier and more affordable for people to co-own (and manage) homes together. 

Alterations to the original building plans, however small, can create risks.In a nearby county, they have inspectors going around town to check for any unauthorized alterations, A co-worker had an old window AC, his wife was tired of not able to open and use that window, opted to buy a through the wall AC.
