However, I wanted to continue learning so I looked more into real estate investing as a way to create a path for myself and expand into other fields I'm passionate about, such as health and wellness.My goal is to build up both businesses into companies that work to create solutions for our environment, the less fortunate or lower-income, provide jobs, better our food system, and inspire those like me to think bigger and know it's possible.Thank you to everyone that's here and I hope to add value inside the forums and continue making this a place to give knowledge and push our peers forward.

@Kyle Garand since you'll be living there to begin with, there's a big question of where you personally want to live.Apart from that and prices of course (North Kingstown is generally a lot pricier than Johnston), I'd say also look at the financial health of the city/town, which you can research online particularly relating to bond ratings (S&P, Moody's, etc.)If a city or town is in a difficult position financially, like any business it has two options - cut expenses, or raise income.

If they are below the required temperature one of the things they can do is say they will report to the health department.

@Sawyer Smith I have always wondered if there was any way to make a lease require a certain basic standard of health safety... but I’m told pretty much “no” by most pros...

I believe people worried about their health will favor STR versus staying in crowded hotels.

Additionally, there are generally numerous other costs associated with hard money loans such as origination points, appraisal fees, etc.Speaking with a number of lenders can give you a good idea of the liquidity they'll expect you to have for a certain loan amount, and most won't get too far into the loan application process if they know that you won't be able to support the loan request.Best,Michael

Health care providers, who make great tenants, WILL notice, trust me.

Now as Shepherd finished the construction and waiting for final occupancy next Tuesday from the health department which I pray to God finally happens.

Along with pursuing my initial goal of owner occupied commercial property with my gym as a business, because my passion of health truly helps others in many other aspects besides just looking good.
