Hola Everyone,

My name is Rose, and I live in Durham. So far, my only experience is buying my primary home five months ago. Besides that, I am pretty new to the real estate investing world. I've been reading and listening to podcasts for over a year, and I am ready to take action and buy my first investment property by the end of the year which I plan to use as a mid-term rental.

I would love to connect and learn from other investors in the area.

So very long story shortened my water bill is extremely high this month. We average $35.00 a month and this month it was $151.20. The jerk landlord told us in a very nasty little note to check out water leaks which we did and don't have. He claims we went through 19,500 gallons of water in April which means we used 650 gallons a day for 30 days. Not possible. We checked for leaks in the house and under it. We found nothing. We have an issue with a leaky toilet but it's been that way for 2 years and the bill is never higher than $35.00. Any ideas if this is an underground leak that has nothing to do with me or is my landlord price gouging me?

Does anyone know a reliable property management company in this area?  I am looking to acquire an 8 units MF there.  

Thanks,

Sam

Hey Everyone-

Thanksgiving is conflicting with our normally scheduled meetup, so we are going to meet a week earlier than usual. We are also trying out a new venue, Fiddlin' Fish Brewing. We had a great crowd last month, but being forced indoors with a band was sub-optimal(sorry for everyone's hearing!) --- Looking forward to connecting again this month, just look for the BP sign at the table if you are new!
