Almost every “start with nothing” story sounds great on social media, but in real life it usually ends the moment a lender asks for a draw schedule, proof of funds, or a clean scope.

Look on social media, once you get into that topic, it will serve you a lot of it.

In my opinion, staying highly organized and building systems/processes is the most viable part of dropshipping.

. - Start posting on your favorite social media site what you are looking for – not once or twice, but CONSISTENTLY for 6 months!

In addition to that my professional organizations (National Association of Residential Property Managers, Maryland Realtors, and Harford County Board of Realtors) are great resources of information for me on this subject as they try very hard to protect their members.If you are not a licensee or member of a professional organization I would suggest trying your state's Department of Housing/Community Development (or whatever its called in your state).

A lot of these gurus are making their money off social media and content creation more than actual investing.  

It’ll make taxes and bookkeeping way easier.Use property management software — something like Baselane can help you collect rent online, automate reminders, track maintenance, and organize receipts all in one dashboard.

What to look for in a good rent-by-the-room propertyThis matters a lot:• At least 3–4 legal bedrooms• Two or more bathrooms• A layout where bedrooms don’t share thin walls• Plenty of parking• A common area large enough for multiple people• A location near hospitals, colleges, or job centers• A basement or attic that can be finished legallyAnd most important:A floor plan where rooms feel private.Privacy is what keeps tenants staying longer.My honest adviceAt your age, with energy and time on your side, this strategy can fast-track you if you treat it like a business.But don’t do it blindly.Tour existing co-living houses in your area.Study your local ordinance.Model the extra expenses and the extra time.Room-by-room renting works, but it works because the operator is organized, not because the property magically prints money.

I've found it very easy to use and helping with keeping everything organized.
