@Ethan Rolnick-the best way to start is with a house hack, period-real estate investing does require money - any methods purporting to not are high risk-your best bet is to save up for a house hack. 

Your best bet is between Yardi Voyager and AppFolio. 

The attorney fee was worth it, because:1) Suggested missing compliance issues2) Pointed out violations that wouldn't stand in court3) Suggested changes for legal clarity4) Suggested additional clauses I hadn't thought ofSince then, we review our lease annually to improve it to address tenant-related and court-related issues.

We only require a cleaning on move-out but we give our clients the option to require mid-stay cleans since that would be an additional expense for them. 

I think basements as additional living space - assuming the basement is finished nicely, has egress, is free of radon, and is professionally waterproofed - are great ideas.However, we've had low success rates leasing even semi-below-grade apartments.

If you were to view your forms from TT, I’m betting they put the deduction on the schedule C form.I just finished a 2.5 hour conversation with the tax law department of the irs.

Additionally, buying in bulk can lead to discounts, which helps in reducing overall costs.

Truth is that when I seek a rental of less than 30 days I expect to pay the highest rate; 30 days I’m expecting a SIGNIFICANT discount; 90 days an additional discount; 6 months a rate closer to a 12 month furnished rental lease with a small upcharge.
