I'm still paying off my student loans and my car and my credit card from our trip to Aruba.  

My fiance just joined the local Howard Hanna office so I have a rookie agent with a team.

You can automatically feed in your properties bank accounts and business credit card, which makes tracking expenses and income a breeze.

There are a lot of STR opportunities and if you play your cards right and land a decent purchase that ca cash flow its a wise investment.The flip side if is for some the reason your location is not as hot on the STR find a long term renter and cash flow with a longer lease.

The Rookie podcast would be my recommendation since it sounds like you are just starting out.

I know the area I want to buy, and I plan to use the Deal Machine app to skip trace the leads and for post card marketing as well as cold calling.

Would recommend getting a no interest for 12 month credit card to handle furnishing costs and to limit amount of capital spent upfront. 

@Mary CiccarelliNonetheless looking good condition shape or shaped up a little repaired of may my lucky or not if that in your complete shape for sell or lease even render is if customers rent stays as long enough so possible that down above house shape maybe custom care or not consistent move out unknown so makes my possible card of or what condition of.

The ultimate pro move is to first request a Credit line increase on a preexisting personal line and then get the new business card and then shift the credit line balance over as needed. 

If the interest is an issue on the HELOC, maybe you can use some of the 18-24 months no interest credit cards to run your rehab and use your saving for the down payment.
