Hello BP, I’m wondering if anyone has any experience providing an “easy living” type of rental? Essentially, I’m wondering if rather than having the tenant pay for things such as pest control, landscaping, and possibly even a once per month house cleaner, I as the owner would cover it but the reflection would be in the rental price. Has anyone tried this type of strategy, and if so was it a success or fail? I’m still getting my feet wet here, but it strikes me as a good was to ensure that my property remains in good shape during the duration of the tenants lease. This could potentially increasingly the mileage I get out of it in between repairs and maintenance, I would think? Thanks in advance! Regards, Will

@Brandon M., thank you for the feedback. That was very insightful and makes a lot of sense. I have reached out to my realtor to inquire about references, I thought that would be a good place to start. I'll also look for some local networking events. I see that you're in Clearwater, are there many networking opportunities in that area?

Hello Russel. Thanks so much for the information. Those are great recommendations. From your experience, what is the best way to add GC’s and other necessary relationships to your network? I’m still very new to posting and the BP forums in general, any guidance would be much appreciated. Thanks again for your feedback, we truly appreciate it.

Hello! My fiance' and I are new to biggerpockets and investing in general. Primarily, I work in business intelligence and my fiance' works in affiliate marketing. I've been following the webinars that Brandon offers for a few weeks now and have become increasingly interested in starting our journey. 

I have been researching for several months now and have established that our initial target will be single family homes, but we're also open to considering a duplex if the opportunity presents itself. I am currently working with the realtor whom helped us purchase our new home in December. I have MLS alerts set up for SFR under $100,000 and Duplexes under $200,000. I've been analyzing deals for a few weeks now and am getting more comfortable with the process, however, one of the biggest hurdles thus far for me has been trying to estimate what a rehab will cost on the varying properties I've looked at.

I would love to meet other investors, contractors, and property managers in the area to expand our network and perhaps share / acquire knowledge and experiences.

Thank you for taking the time to read our intro, and I look forward to speaking with anyone whom reaches out. 

Kind Regards,

Will and Alexandra
