Definitely start getting preapproved and lining up property managers.

Having said that, if you have zero skin in the game, and don't have something to offer like experience or a trade skill, it is definitely a hard sell to an investor, you need to be able to establish confidence in you with the investor.

@Jeffrey Holst yes I'm definitely looking on the smaller side in terms of # of units.

But thanks for the info on the he podcast I will definitely be checking into that.

@Tyler Jahnke Good point regarding tenant paying utilities, definitely adds up.

@Robin Searle I'm definitely joining a team for at least the first 2 years.

I definitely will.

@Caleb Heimsoth yes she definitely has lol, I knew it was her even before opening the post.......

I was originally ok with both renting it selling and now I feel like this could be a either a fantastic middle ground, or a hole I know nothing about and could fall into.I am DEFINITELY willing to look I to podcasts and books as well if you have any ideas of where to go :)

I do like the idea of making the rental income non passive income by becoming a “real estate professional”, that’s definitely something I will have to research.Thanks again.
