During my time in college I never lived on campus and rented four different houses with roommates.

I am just struggling to figure out how I would afford the monthly interest expenses as construction on this type of project would take a ton of time and money.The building will be luxury student apartments which on my rough calculations can have realistically 60-65 apartments or 180-195 beds.

When starting out, I think you should at least be able to get to your property several times within the first couple of years to en reasonable amousure everything is set up and functioning properly.

No system is perfect, so don't waste your time chasing after the next shiny object.

Can any Ohio real estate agents that own personal rental property answer this question?

I look forward to learning from you all as I strive to master this element of real estate.  

You can continue to invest in real estate and create more depreciation losses via cost segregation to offset the recapture though. 

@Ivan WudexiRecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

Imagine making millions of dollars throughout your career and then having to pay Uncle Sam 30-50% every year instead of compounding that cash over time.This is exactly what real estate professionals have learned to mitigate.To reduce their taxable income, they buy a building every year, do a cost seg, and use depreciation to reduce their tax liability dramatically.Their personal wealth snowball grows much larger and much faster than their W2 counterparts who give most of their money back to the government each year.Following this strategy as a real estate professional is one of the best ways to end up with a much larger net worth at the end of your career.

Please let us know at biggerpockets.com/guest For this round we're specifically looking for folks who are now real estate investors who fall into one of two experiences:Did you start your real estate journey with a significant amount of savings you were able to stockpile to start your investing journey from a well paying full-time job?
