Hey all,Soon I'll be closing on my father's old house that I inherited and I want to get back into the market with some rental properties.

I have a 9-5 that I want out of but want to secure at least my first property prior to leaving it.

I just purchased my first Short Term rental and am looking into Smart Home Devices.

Hello All, I joined Bigger Pockets pretty recently, and I am excited to learn as much as I can from those further along in their journey than me, while also being able to help those that I can.

I am assuming I can write the offer as cash, so long as the private funding is guaranteed otherwise I may put my EMD at risk. 

A little about me:I hold a Certified General Appraiser license and have been working in corporate and commercial real estate for over 25 years.My recent focus has been on property investments and appraisal work, including commercial and residential properties, lease-to-own agreements, and broker price opinions (BPOs).I’m always looking for opportunities to expand my portfolio and knowledge in real estate, and I love analyzing market trends and valuations.I’m here to connect with other investors, share insights, and learn from the wealth of knowledge this community offers.

She is telling me I have to put a honest deposit of $1000 down for every offer I make.

If I didn’t live in Texas, I would probably invest elsewhere due to the exceptionally high taxes. 

Is there anything I should know?

I am working with a property management agent to figure things out.
