Don't you think with the HOA there, it's still easier to manage on your own compared to single-family?

Here are some numbers: Current PITI: $3,970Estimated rent: $4500-$5000 (there are several homes within 4 blocks of mine that owners have turned into rentals and I've been able to compare online pics to our home, so I am confident this is a good estimate)Sq ft: 1790Estimated sale price today: 1150000-1250000Mortgage balance: 612,000I would self manage.

I hate full blown Landlord Software because I only have about 10 units and hate the fees...I am a big fan of the "Lite" Landlord Software and the only one for rent payment that can be 100% free for the landlord and the tenant WITH automatic late fees is apartments.comI actually did a whole video about this on my YouTube channel comparing the must have features of any rental collection tool!

Of course the co-signer should be significantly stronger in ALL areas as compared to the applicant...usually this is a parent or relative, and they should be well established, with ownership of real estate for years; long and stable employment; no, or very distant, criminal and traffic court records; well funded SAVINGS/IRA's or stock market accounts.
