always love seeing others getting into the RE game early in life. i used to be a die-hard index fund investor & have since moved all my $$ into RE. you just seriously can not compare the two. wealth can be built SO MUCH FASTER in RE vs in the stock market. would love to connect and see how i can help you!

Also willing to check on progress of renovations or give you a second opinion on any home inspection or help you find the subcontractors you need to get things done.

I am an investing agent in Cincinnati and Northern Ky, if you need help, in Greater Cincinnati or not, let me know!

You could always offer a shorter lease that ends in May/June to give yourself an opportunity to find new tenants or raise the rent to market at that time.I hope this helps and if you ever need any guidance or want to chat about the process of assuming an existing loan, I would love to connect! 

When investing with a partner, you’ll each claim 50% of the depreciation and share expenses (like repairs and interest) equally, helping reduce your taxable income.

Same thing .. you can manage his properties but a Realtor's License will help you greatly .. a property manager can handle other peoples properties with a management agreement.

I also help clients throughout ND and MN.

Or a loan officer who can help get this done?

You may have neighbors willing to help now and then, but it's unlikely you'll find a neighbor willing to do this all the time, every time, for years.In my experience, most landlords lose far more money through self-management than they would by hiring a professional, even when they live close to the rental.

It doesn't bring the annual gross income which is huge in helping someone to decide if the deal is worth it.
