Sellers will often let their leases expire when planning to list the property for sale because they don't want the complications of trying to arrange a showing with tenants.

I hate that I haven't yet been actively investing but I'm also extremely proud of myself for clearing the debt and being able to move forward and be in a financial situation to leverage my money wisely in real estate before I begin.So all in all within 4 years of graduating college I will be house hacking with no personal student loan debt.There are a lot of smarter people than I on this site who have much more experience who may give different advice, but this was the plan that I really latched onto when I was reaching out about my first property 2 years ago.

Also go onto the meetup site and search for any RE networking events local.

Do some research on private money and see what you find out there.Debt to Income - this answer is a little more complicated...what did the bank tell you your DTI was?
