And any time I can listen to anything I’m listening to podcast on real estate.

If I go after a nicer property in less need of fixes, seems FHA will be my best bet.

These low rates aren't going anywhere anytime soon.

If you have any questions about the steps or want to dive into exactly what to look for during each step, please feel free to message me anytime!

Where I'm located your best bet is to get someplace that needs some work so you can force appreciation while having a small mortgage obligation because your renters are covering the majority for you.I think you should be careful with your numbers in these situations so you know what to expect for income/expenses going in and aren't blindsided.

As long as you are making money on it, I think you'll definitely learn a lot from it being more of an active investor.The rental is about 3 hours from me so it definitely wouldn't be easy to just jump over there anytime especially with working FT.

Sounds like my wife and I may have to put initial properties in her name since I'm not currently planning to return to a W2 job anytime soon. 

Any time I assist anyone within my circle of closely affiliated colleagues, I always establish a compensation structure upfront beforehand to avoid any awkward conversations down the line unless I already decided to volunteer my time.

I do not think and I wouldnt bet that prices would drop.
