I'm reaching out to gather some insights and feedback on a strategy I'm considering for my first investment property.

Basically sounds like you’re putting down an extra $20k for…Him choosing the property (I assume/hope it’s really you both choose or it’s actually to his advantage to pick it, so this I feel can be disregarded.)Him running all the property management. 1) feels like he might get sick of doing all the work and forget why he’s doing it. 2) you’re paying $20k more to not have to do it so how long would it take for property management fees to reach $40k?

@J ScottI appreciate your willingness to reach out like this and offer so much help and advice.

How should I vet the prospective ones who reach out?

A few weeks into the tenancy something strange begins to happen-- I am suddenly hearing very alarming arguments between the two of them from next door (which is saying something as noise does not find its way into my house easily).

Not sure if you're looking to invest locally or where the numbers make more sense but feel free to reach out if you'd like to connect.Regardless, keep us posted on your journey!

@Adam EckhoffCongratulations on reaching the $100k milestone in your index fund!

I will definitely reach out to my insurance broker and discuss next steps.

The key to me was to create a "calendar" with all of my available slots, look at who is going that I would conceivably work with, and then reach out to them to schedule a chat prior to leaving for the conference.

If it's under one parcel then it should be treated as one 10 unit, which I believe should be able to be financed pretty easily?
