Buying SFH to rent can be challenging.

Investment Info:Single-family residence buy & hold investment.

@Sasha Josephs,Find your buyers first, and find out what they want to buy.

With many people's help I recently made my first buy-and-hold purchase of a duplex in Fort Wayne, as an OOS investor! 

Newbie here.Thinking bout buying a commercial property from the owner that I feel he’s asking too much$800,000.Rent is $4000 (currently lease )Is this a bad investment?

My advice - find a legit mentor that may partner with you as cohost is your first property, willing to share knowledge and you absolutely know for a fact they hv experience in the airbnb space with their own properties; gather info on internet, buy a couple of books - all the information is already out there.

I hear many recommend to 'consider' LLC after buying more than one properties, not the first and only property.Isn't there a yearly cost to maintain LLC? 

Looking at the city from an investor's perspective, @Becca F. is absolutely right, you need to make sure you're buying in the right neighborhood.

I have credit in the high 700s, I have over 10 units, have done several refinances and buy and holds.  

Questions: Is this just what to expect from buying rentals, and (regardless of expectations), what can/should I do?
