This is a great market to start investing in.

Soon as I moved in I found a 3/2 pool home to bid on for a Rental and asked my Agent for a recommendation for a licensed Handyman.

The two-family I am currently interested in is in a good location.

@Adam Uxley Welcome...typically the biggest factor in where you invest and what you invest in is your price point...assuming you have $20k free cash, you're probably going to be looking at a owner-occupied property...nothing wrong with that at all...it's a great way to get started.

When I moved in I didn't have to sign anything.

What my team and au did was found out what our goal and main purpose was when it comes to investing in real estate and this helped us determine our buying criteria as well as what market we would do business in.

Otherwise your Cash-In is off tilt and you'll likely end up with an exorbitant cash-in-deal, like 25% (which is what I've seen happen quite a few times in my market). 

I meant as in I was having trouble finding information about the area I’m looking to invest (central Kentucky) from investors in that area.But just looked up BRRRR method and will definitely keep that in mind for the future.

Also, I talked to the property management company that said people often buy with an FHA or "must be primary residence" loan and then say that circumstances changed/prevent them from moving in.

I’m selling my current rental in Nashville, and looking at more affordable markets like Birmingham to start BRRRR’ing in.
