Hey Taylor, I wanted to jump in here and say that even though BRRRs are hard to truly pull off in Colorado since you'll be competing with lots of experts like Matt, House Hacks are still relatively easy to come by and work really well for your age group (18) and goals (retire by 30).

Get to know the players in your market and spend time with them and even offer to help with what they are working on.

It's so competitive in the current Houston market, so many wholesalers already competing each other..

The landlord is not allowed to ask for proof of their claim (unless they're considered a "high income" earner, which in most counties means they make over $100k/yr).This significantly changes the law for California landlords, so if you have any tenants that do not pay rent between now and January 31, 2021, I highly suggest you seek the advice of competent legal counsel before proceeding against the tenant. 

This comes from looking at dozens or even hundreds of competing rentals and deals and evaluating them.

Who knows, whoever you pick can be your lifelong team players. 

Consider the experience level and competence of not only the sponsor, but of the sponsorship team as a whole.

One can easily see the reason for a seller's insistence that the commercial space does in fact hold value and should be paid for, but each investor should be careful to underwrite deals they have the competency to execute AND align with the value and visions that the investor has. 

Fyi, as long as 75% of the rent on a property is more than your PITI payment and you are working with a competent lender, your DTI should get better with every property...

I see a huge shift in the job market where remote workers HAVE TO but also CAN compete for jobs nationwide.
