Just do your research on where you are looking and then go from there.

I know this is more of an investing forum, but I figured I'd reach out and see if members with an investing background would provide advice.We're preparing to purchase a vacation property in North Myrtle Beach.

This is also my first rental, so there are many unknowns at this point.

We are OOS investors and it’s unheard of not to use a lawyer to review PAs, especially at this price point.

Engaging with online communities such as BiggerPockets can also help you learn from experienced investors and explore different strategies.

This is wonderful.

There are advisors out there who specialize in working with real estate investors and understand the unique challenges and opportunities in this space.
