Account Closed Michigan is quite large, are you able to narrow down what area in Michigan you were thinking about investing in?

That is the fun part to study and teach. 

There are cheaper properties in the $300K range, but they are in rundown drug-infested areas.The calc I ran for this one was taking into account current rents, which we researched and determined to be a bit low.

I created an account on BP a couple years ago while I was looking for a property manager for my house-hacked condo.

We are now moving to automatic draft from their account. 

Accounting advice : setup and on going maintenance of Quickbooks (or other recommended software). 

I think for now I am just going to keep studying and saving for the first purchase maybe at the end of the year or beginning of next or whenever I find a good deal.

you did right by creating the "vague entity"...separation is always good....bad guy versus the good guy...but you should make an LLC just for accounting purposes...its cheap to create and the right way to run the business...

Personally, I think the strategy that Account Closed mentioned is step #1 if you are 18.
