After studying various books and on a multitude of platforms, I’m excited to get started investing in commercial real estate in my area.

@Shlomo Koheler yeah creative financing is certainly an aspect I am studying up on more to feel confident talking through that option with the seller - definitely opens up the ability to put less money down to start

I reinvested proceeds from the rent collected from the first tenant, to spruce up the second bedroom (I call it the nature room) I added a full length body mirror, study desk, a few various wall decors, updated the listing pics (didn’t get to put in service the new comforter and pillows, since I’m still waiting on them to be delivered) changed two small details in my outreach marketing message, and it made all the difference in response rate from the female demographic; since the majority of travel nurses are females, I realized they would not feel safe/confident in booking from, who they presume, is a single male, so I included a profile picture of my gf and I.

I am currently studying business administration at Pacific Lutheran University in Parkland, Washington.

Lot of work for not a lot of grapes, too.The Air BnB/glamming is a good idea and you can still maintain Ag status by doing some other stuff on the property. 8ac almost seems silly small to be irreversibly zoned as AG, I’d look seriously into getting rezoned.

The ones I have found so far are around 165k-200k+ but I don't know the areas yet so I am still studying those. 

If the infrastructive isn't properly maintained, one major repair could easily eat the small cash flow that may exist. 

If you’re providing them you’ll also need to maintain the connection.

I'm just curious if using the equity to maintain a 80 ltv will backfire if the price of the house drops.
