Yes and they require it on many of their forms. Norristown does as well.

Hi @Lisa Read, I am also looking for a contractor in the Pottstown area. What were your thoughts on Beilhart Remodeling?  What type of work did you have done?

B&B Landscaping. I will PM you the details.

I know this thread is a bit old but I was wondering how Quicken users reconcile their bank account and use the rent center feature. It seems like I am entering rent payments twice since I am synced to my bank account and using the rent center to track rent payments. Any advice?

Thanks in advance!

Nathanael - I also recently started investing in Pottstown and picked Nate's brain a couple of times. I purchased a quad in June and a duplex last month. The borough can be tricky but they haven't been impossible to deal with. Just prepare for a learning curve when it comes to their U&O process.

In regards to the tenants, the quad plex came with 2 Section 8 tenants and they alone have provided great revenue for us over the past few months.  There is also no shortage of Section 8 applicants in the area if you were to go that route. I have also found that the cost of various tradesmen is comparable to the cost of living which makes repairs reasonably priced. 

Overall, so far so good from my perspective.

@Andrew K. main and e. 3rd streets

Does anyone have any advice on how to find a local "emergency contact" to fulfill the rental application requirement without contracting with a property manager? 

@Andrew K., where is the property located?

Thanks, @Steve Babiak and @Dave Godfrey. 

Hey Nate - I would love to go but unfortunately can't make it this time. Hopefully my wife and I can make it to the next one.
