Big mortgage companies do it all the time.

I hear and read time and time again that it is very beneficial to be in the same room as people that are where you want to be financially but I don't know how to make that happen exactly.

You will still have to pay someone to live somewhere anyway so you may as well build equity at the same time and as a backup plan, sell the property if you are not going to be able to rent it out.

Obviously I would like to give them plenty of time to uproot their lives, but also want to balance being too generous or giving away way more than is necessary.Thoughts? 

During this time, I've gained valuable insights and experience, and I'm eager to expand my rental property portfolio.I currently own one rental property from my first house purchase.

If I have clearly explained the requirements, the time frames, and clearly set expectations, I know that the borrowers will be happy with our service.

That being said, I have been listening to podcasts and reading books on real estate for a couple years now but have not had the time or money to fully dive in just yet.

And an infestation of German roaches that made the pest guy jump (he said).After everything was said and done, we incurred 4 times the cost as I was told/ estimated. 

I pick them up all the time.
