I decided to buy the house in my name to qualify for a homestead exemption.

My mom sold her house and downsized and rather than buy a rental, she put the money in a savings account.

First property if you have these concerns buy small and low

The fact that you can buy into leads does not make you better with investors so that means it may or may not be worth it.

Just realize that if you buy real estate with a heloc, be careful as now you are basically leveraging existing assets for new assets and many times people get over levered and in trouble in those scenarios.

Buy supplies in bulk and keep them in a locked closet, garage, ect.

. - The as-is value was $265,000, and I was able to get a short-term loan for $212,000 (0.80 * $265,000)- My down from hand was ($232,500 - $212,000) = $20,500- Including the closing costs, appraisal, inspection, and all other charges, my total BUY was $32,598Rehab:- It was a fixer upper.

If I buy one of these deeds, am I able to immediately file for a quitclaim deed/ silent title?

Would greatly appreciate any Realtor recommendations that you've worked with in purchasing an AirBNB who would know more about local ordinances/best areas to buy as well.Thanks for the help!

For example, things like tools or building materials that I buy specifically for repairs on these units.
