My mind was set on buying a 4plex and obtaining a FHA loan, which I did already get preapproval.

What did you do immediately after obtaining your first property?  

There is no wrong way to go about it, you can use OPM or "other people's money" or utilize a government downpayment resource or look into FHA loans to see if you qualify.For a first step get in contact with a mortgage broker to see where you and your financials stand as far as obtaining leverage on your money. 

I obtained quotes for the work prior to making an offer and adjusted my offer in light of those bids.

Section 47a-23 ofthe Connecticut General Statutes is modified to provide: “(g) Nolandlord of a dwelling unit, and no such landlord’s legal representative,attorney-at-law, or attorney-in-fact, shall, prior to the repeal orexpiration of the public health and civil preparedness emergenciesdescribed herein, deliver or cause to be delivered a notice to quit or serveor return a summary process action, for any reason set forth in thischapter or in sections 21-80 et seq. of the Connecticut General Statutes,except for nonpayment of rent due on or before February 29, 2020, forserious nonpayment of rent as defined herein, for serious nuisance asdefined in section 47a-15 of the Connecticut General Statutes, or, provided the notice to quit is not delivered during the term of anyexisting rental agreement, for a bona fide intention by the landlord touse such dwelling unit as such landlord’s principal residence.

A few generic questions I’ve been struggling with:After obtaining my license, what would be the best route to be at a level, which I can start comfortably flipping properties or securing rental properties?

Unfortunately, it’s very difficult to obtain, there’s only a 70% recaptured limit (you forgive the last 30%) and many other items that make it unreasonable.

That includes items such as a bigger water meter, work in public space, updating the energy efficiency, fire sprinklers, and so on.

Id say an investor friendly agent is also a realtor specifically being a part of lobbying for landlords rights through being a major investor, a local public policy committee member, taking advantage of the doors that the associations open to speak directly to legislators. 

Want their properties to shine to obtain repeat clients and ratings.New vanities, tile, swimming pool shape, up dated showers. etc.Scottsdale is the place!
