The biggest benefit as an agent of the MLS in regard to buying your own properties is that you can see the agent notes, you can receive updates through 'showing time' and you can use the official Realtor forms (Offer to purchase and contract 2-T) that make an offer look better than non-agents who write their offers on less familiar forms they find on the internet.

I'd ask them, not random people on the internet. 

IRA piece is interesting but some of the biggest overreach comes in the new account reporting rules proposed.

The biggest thing is just start trying to get a deal on the line.

You could do that through the internet but it's much easier for you because you'll put boots on the ground.

Not sure if you will find someone to help you write a lease but you can find many leases here and on the internet. 

The biggest key is to start… know if you wait the best deals will disappear.

From there, search each one on the internet...

Purchase price: $330,000 I bought my first house at 22 right after I got out of the navy I have two roommates that pay my mortgage I pay the utilities and internet How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

@Daniel Felix it's hard for anyone to judge what size unit you need over the internet.
