But here I am, trying to put a really strong offer in on a home and I’m not sure if I should go in with the mindset that it’s a 3b/2ba 1,895 sq ft or a 4b/2ba 2,055 sq ft… Seeing as I’m going to rent this one day, if I myself decide to get it assessed/permitted as square footage (which I don’t know how much of a pain it truly is), I ran some rent estimators online (RentCast.io) and the rental comp differences between those two scenarios is about $2,275/monthly vs. $2,600/monthly, which is huge! 

What they do differently is find off-market deals through various lead sources they created over time, and they're supposed to send them your way according to your criteria.

Thank you, this discussion thread has helped me think about the loans in a slightly different way and weigh my options better. 

As someone who also embarked on this journey, I found that having the right tools can make a significant difference.

Moreover, due to my irregular income, obtaining financing isn't a viable option for me.Considering the above constraints, my plan involves a different strategy tailored to a specific area in Alabama.

Tenants are different depending on locations.

I see the same templates from different people and ignore them as they all look the same.

Understand the fees involved and calculate the total cost for an entire year of management so you can compare the different managers.

Obviously hard to tell, but I would hope my current investment will be election-proof Every market is different right now.

Anything different on the lease for section 8 tenant that I need to put in the lease, especially in CA with so many rules.3.
