Not every older system needs to be simply replaced.

.: I just got billed $365 by my property manager for replacing a toilet fill valve and supply line.

Any tips would be appreciated

Quote from @Hector Espinosa: Hi,I'm negotiating a seller financing deal which may be my first one and would like to ask for some advise about and what are advantages and disadvantages about seller financing deals.These are the seller financing terms:House Price: $330,000.00 USD​ (Sellers still owe ~$301,000 USD)Down Payment: 5% = $16,500 USD​Loan Amount: $313, 500​ (Monthly payments will be amortized as a 30 years loan​)Interest Rate: 4.531%Balloon Loan Term: 5 YearsMonthly Payment (P&I): $1,594.24​Closing Costs:  ~$3300 ​Zip Code: 74105Observations:       * HVAC requires an update but pending to inspection (replacing with a new one will cost ~$10,000 - $15,000 USD )     * Expected Rent Income: $2,000- $2,300 but this is has been really complicated to get a good estimate because is all over the place in the different sites I have checked

I love my W2 job and am not looking for replacement income, but I do want to diversify my investment portfolio in the real estate sector while keeping my focus on what I love and do best -- emergency medicine!

Every single surface in the house was redone/replaced.

However, as @Chad Hale mentioned, only if you can afford it - meaning both financially and mentally (e.g. how stable are both of your jobs, how long will it take you or your husband to find a replacement job, how much you have in reserves, and whether you guys are in a position to withstand that mental stress, etc.)When you mention 8k monthly, I am assuming that's net profit?

Quote from @Steve Tse: Hi BP, What insurance carriers can you recommend in Texas, as I am shopping around to replace my landlords policy that I currently have with Travelers ?

To do that they need to remove my 6 ft fencing on that edge and will replace it, which isn’t in question.

 Cleveland OH offers to pay for half of the sidewalk and apron replacement.
