I’m looking to start BRRRRing once I develop my portfolio and get some skin in the game.

Just for some background info......the only reason I started and own Skip Genie now is because I specialized in highly distressed vacant properties and learned the ins and outs of how to efficiently find and contact the owners/heirs and then be able to close on them.  

If the oil runs out and results in damage to the system, the tenant will pay for the repair.I also recommend you be clear about this in your written lease for future renters.If there are repeated violations, terminate their lease and start with a new renter.

These forums are a great place to learn and meet people, whether you're just starting out or you're a seasoned investor.

Let me start by saying I have hired a CPA, and have a future meeting set up. 

I’m assuming that $285k will be the starting bid.

I'm uncertain whether to wait until we settle down before starting our real estate investment journey or to purchase a home at our next location and rent it out when we move again.

These numbers are not a house hacking scenario but to check if the deal is good so that I can start house hacking.

Posting the same question in multiple forums.After reading through, I learnt the lessons and applied it as regards questions I would normally ask about my interest in wholesaling as a strategy to starting in the Real Estate Industry, I realize a whole lot of persons had same questions and I learnt from the Responses on the various discussions.It also changed my perspective in the way I approached the vets in the house, right now I just want to connect, I mean we are seeking financial freedom and for most of us that is time to do what we want and if I don't have regards for your time by being valuable to you, then I don't regard you enough.

That's great, because many people never get started at all.
