Focus on getting into that first deal—everything else can fall into place after.Best of luck with your investing journey!

Even 1% properties are getting harder to come by without buying c class or below.

I'm ready to get to work. 

I'm wondering if anyone here is familiar with Seattle's STR policies and how to get around the (2 max) STR per person policy? 

Overall, in markets like Jacksonville, where the demand for both homes and rentals remains strong, there’s significant potential for investors who are ready to snatch the opportunity.

When applying for new loans at least from my experience its never been an issue with any of our clients getting a Heloc on primary then converting that primary into a rental. 

Most people target a number and it like a greyhound chasing the fake rabbit, you consistently move the needle and never get there.

Any pointers as to where I can get some benchmark answers for these questions?

Like to get feedback on this and how everyone is handling this.
