This was a complete remodel that has significant value added. 

I'd say your first move should be to house hack and get out of the apartment, this is the most beginner-friendly way to get started, and as you continue to educate yourself you'll be better equipped to find other deals as you learn.

For this particular deal, we put down 55%.

At this point in my response I outlined what actual market rents were for similar properties.

We would love to connect with others to share ideas about investing, form relationships in this business, and even work some deals. 

Congrats on making a mental commitment to this industry.  

Check with Account Closed about all this, but also an attorney!

This ensures you accurately reflect your active involvement in managing the STR.

Would love to see an update on this as well.
