In neighborhoods that won't attract high credit score tenants, I've found that a stable job history with a MINIMUM of 1 year at current or previous job to be the best indicator of a great tenant. 

Basically, you can't STR an entire home here, or even an ADU, and can only STR out a portion of a home that you reside in.

Prob not the smartest thing to do but will be gone in no time.

@Brittany MyrickIf I were getting started in real estate investing in New England, I’d focus on researching local market trends, especially job growth, rental demand, and the broader economic outlook.

I am currently an Asset Manager for Multifamily Deals as my W-2 job and looking to buying my first deal in College Station/Bryan Area.Anyone I can connect with to pick their brain on different investing strategies? 

But day trading is a job at best and a nightmare at worst. 

@Nicholas Dillon If you sell a property and perform a 1031 exchange but do not reinvest all the proceeds, the leftover portion (called "boot") is subject to taxation.

How times have changed.  

And, if you are going to buy someone's time and expertise to train you, DO THE WORK. 

Great job for taking the leap.
