@Mario Morales - Personally, I would do some research in your target market and search (even it on zillow) for 2-4 family properties and see what agent(s) seem to transact the most in that space.

Awesome to see a new investor-minded person here.. do you have a favorite real estate success story already?

The biggest mistake I see out of state investors make is relying on others too much for direction and guidance instead of doing their own due diligence and building their own team that they actually meet and interviewRelying on one person who alleges that they have a 'team' built already that you can use as well can be a costly mistake.

Attend in person networking events in your area (there are many in and around Vancouver). 

You will never pay more tax in recapture than what you originally deferred, assuming your personal tax rate stays the same.

You can also read our current and past issues on our website or attend our in-person events around the nation to meet us in person. 

I have found that going that extra mile, like the couch covers etc and making sure the person with the disability has the easiest time visiting our place.As someone with a disability (I have a degenerative neurological disorder) and use a cane, I like to make sure folks with similar issues have a good time.

Personally, I'd cash-out refinance into a 30 or 15 year loan.

@Brice Alef-TorrisiHaving one checking account per property is an excellent way to keep your property finances separate from one another and your personal finances.
