I have wanted to get into the rental game for a very long time, my parents have never invested and have always lived paycheck to paycheck but I've always enjoyed doing something more than a "job", I prefer to "conquer" instead.

I am also about to close on a medium sized property and am just enjoying the unexpected lower interest rates.  

I really enjoy the podcasts, blogs etc.

It's the only part of real estate I like, so they're the only types of clients I really enjoy working with.

@Kimberly Hoyt Hello Kimberly, as mentioned I did not see a field for Capex or Maintenance I would add say 5% for each of those.

So i'm here looking to connect with anyone near my area in the real estate investing field!

A lot of forum members are very knowledgeable in their respective fields related to real estate investing, whether that is real estate sales, wholesaling, flipping, rentals, lending, self-directed IRA and Solo 401k investing, or tax and legal guidance.

A chance to slow down from the ‘hustle and grind’ (the phrase that makes so many of us cringe in the first place) and take the time to enjoy a sunset together, read some books, do some house projects, and go for a walk on a snowy day.

Clean and disinfectBelow is a link to the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) which describes the outlined topics in more detail.https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/prepare/prevention.html We hope you are safe and enjoying time with your family.

How can I make trips there in the future to check on things and perform maintenance while still enjoying all of my write offs?
