Beginner Questions for a Beginner! (Please help) (Austin, TX)
I have been looking at condos and apartments here in Texas for sale. Recently I started using the Bigger Pockets calculator to figure out some of the finances. I have a few questions that might be stupid to some, but I really would like some answers haha.
1. Are there banks located around here that will allow you to put %10 down?
2. What are the average cost for expenses for a 1 bedroom 1 bath? 2 bedrooms 1 bath? 2 bedrooms 2 baths? (Electricity, Water, Etc..)
3. What expenses do you usually have the tenant pay for?
4. What are the best questions to ask the realtor selling the apartment?
5. Any other tips?
Thank you all so much for your help!
