If you decide to do FSBO, you have to market your home yourself, and people prefer going to NJMLS.com not Forsalebyowner.com.

I prefer a 3% or 5% down payment conventional loan to an FHA if it is a single unit property.

In regards in student housing, IMO I would prefer to rent to medical residents given their likelihood of more financial stability as tenant.

I have been reading many posts over the past couple months and I can honestly say that this community of real estate professionals are full of fantastic advice and info!

Its something I've dealt with the entire 41 years of my life and honestly, just in the last couple of years I've begun to tackle the anxiety and procrastination that comes along with it.  

A simple fix and flip; clean, landscape the yard (in Arizona that means spread some gravel), a couple new light fixtures, and touch-up paint.  

Some variables I've decided on are that we would prefer buy-and-hold investing, to rent out, and that we will continue working with average combined salaries around 80-90k/year, and am open to beginning with a duplex to get the whole house-hacking ball rolling.

Hey @Chase Webster, I must have missed your post a couple months ago!

Sounds like you're well on your way with a couple properties already.
