I'd love to chat with you more about the process.

I do all of this remotely, so I use the above process to filter out 90% of the properties and then send the other 10% to my local team for verification.

Quote from @Rene Hosman: @Austin Wolff recently went through this process of identifying markets to purchase in and he goes over his thought process in this episode on the Rookie podcast about how he used the MarketFinder here on BiggerPockets to find markets that met his criteria Podcast: https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/rookie-473MarketFinder: https://www.biggerpockets.com/marketsI specifically only focused on 2 markets (Indianapolis and Fayetteville, AR) before I found a deal using the BP "deal finder."

I worked with an expert STR agent, Troy Nowak, who guided me through the purchase and negotiation process.

For the first townhome, we are in the renovation process and looking to screen our first tenants.

My though process in undercutting the bank by 1 % was to possibly attract qualified buyers.

You can probably start the education process at 17, then apply for your license once you turn 18.

Not sure why the process would be any difference for a voucher holder in a duplex or single family.

Building a trusted team is key, so starting that process as you actively search for your market will put you in a strong position moving forward.

You also will want to stick to on market properties at first because the purchase process and evaluation process (namely title and inspections) will be more defined.
