Hi all, looking to buy my first investment property this year, and I have been practicing my deal analysis on a daily basis.

Search the term “house hack” on the forums and you will get all different opinions, tips and tricks, best practices, etc..

I'm just practicing making deals on paper.

Is this common practice, or should I walk away?

The hope is this discussion will be educational/helpful for all TK investors, but also be practical for those seeking the tools and resources to get into TK investing. 

As many people are saying, there are lots of things to learn and practice as you scale with REI.  

I agree with Bruce though, experience is the most practical way to learn these types of things.

If so they should update their official website  https://denvergov.org/Governme...In 2016, Denver City Council adopted an ordinance regulating short-term rentals.

There's no "rules" regarding who has to be on the lease, you can make your own choices but adhering to common practices is probably wise.

It's also a good practice to make sure that the current owner is up-to-date with their HOA fees, otherwise that bill will become yours upon purchase.While some people opt not to get inspections on condos/townhomes that are in good shape because of the nature of the HOA taking care of CapEx, getting an inspection is always a good idea so you can learn more about your property and to potentially discover things that may not meet the eye.
