 Hey Kenny! I have a couple questions if you don't mind. 

Looking to close my 1st REI by the end of the year. When finding a trust worthy lender looking for my best interest to help me throughout this process, what are some important questions to ask a lender before partnering with them?

So far I've come up with a few and plz let me know your opinion on these..

- Ask about their rate sheet

- If theres any rates on sale

- Does this loan offer allow for escrow waivers

-How long can I lock this rate in

Thank you for your time and help. Much appreicated.

Hello everyone, my name is Brennan Guiles. Currently a firefighter and looking to start my journey towards financial freedom! 

Been listening to a lot of podcasts and youtube videos ! Now diving into the deep world of BP forums and going to check out Real Estate Rookie, 90 days to your first investment book by Ashley Kehr.

My goal is to close on a deal before the end of the year. My Finances are in line with where i want them to be. Right now I'm practicing analyzing deals and gather more knowledge and tips into buying a first investment property process.

Any tips from others that have already been down this journey? 

Thanks for your time !

Perfect, thank you. HOA fees can absolutely play a big impact in Cash flow compared to a SFR. Didn't think about that nor a different insurance package. Thanks for your input Doug.

Looking for my first real estate investment. Currently would like to buy close to the area I live/work in but housing prices are still pretty high. Was curious to see if anyone has any experience buying a single townhouse rather than a SFH or MFH? Pros? Cons? My goal is long-term rentals. Or should i just bite the bullet and go with a SFH or Duplex.

Thanks for your time and insight.

Best regards,
