I find a way to talk about real estate investing with almost every person I interact with.

I only utilize AirBnB and VRBO.

The information provided to me stated they were paying $1200 + all utilities.

Only monthly debt between the two of us is my fiancé’s minimal student loans.FICO: Mine is in the low 600s, my fiancé’s is north of 750.Credit Issues: I currently have a high utilization rate on the minimal credit cards I have due to a recent financial emergency.

Overall it looks good despite the $600/mo utility fee which really makes the deal not as good as it would be without that.

It's hard for me to plan when I'll have 25% down payment saved up for my third property because I am still trying to wrap my head around the best way to get my second while maximizing my returns and fully utilizing my leverage. 

About 20% of the deal came from private money lenders, and the remaining amount came from utilizing my own funds, as well as credit cards to pay contractors & purchase supplies.

I’m an energetic and active person with great connections in the commercial construction/utility space.

That could mean a foundation is built where it shouldn't be, like over a drain pipe in the utility right away.
