Remember that houses require a lot of upkeep as they actually depreciate and If not properly maintained many properties can be worth less even with land values increasing significantly.

Your next door will probably need more of a cash savings built up but it should be within reach in about a year depending on your lifestyle.

If not, immediately change your lease so it is proper for the next tenant. 

UNLESS you're just running this as a lifestyle business and don't care about your return.

Congrats on getting a deal, even though it may seem overwhelming, it will be much easier once you involve the proper professionals. 

I would not wait for the weekend and request a several week extension and they should have no problem giving it so you can get this sorted properly. 

Both systems did not function properly and cost me $ in about 2 months after purchase.

Clearly define your goals and the proper type looking for.

If you’re experiencing damage from tenants either screen harder at the start or go with a more comprehensive STR-specific insurance offering like Proper or others.

I have taken a liking to Self Storage as an investment property and was hoping to get some recommendations on books for the basics when it comes to finding a good deal, properly insuring for any liabilities, mortgage loans etc.
