That is the BIGGEST flaw in this entire space of REI.

I think the biggest question is why you want to do it, aside from not wanting to waste it.

As long as you have your due diligence you are as good as buying a property that doesn't say "as-is".For question 2: The biggest "scam" is tenants not paying and milking the system.

The biggest focus of mine would be on just having one tax lot and maybe cheaper financing.

My biggest hurdles now are: finding and trusting the right agent (Denver), and  lender. 

I don't know if I want more of the hassle of rentals because it's a distraction from my biggest form of income-- my job.

However, when you factor in the HELOC, we have a negative / break-even cash flow (HELOC payments are about 25% of the revenue from both).

Right now my biggest issue is property management, I have a few companies I have been considering but would still like to reach out to a few more.

One of the biggest mistakes an investor can make when deciding to take the plunge and start spending money on Google Ads is targeting the WRONG keywords.It’s true that one way to use keyword targeting is through “broad” keyword types, which are usually less expensive and can capture various keywords you might not have considered in advance.

With more than one unit, the biggest difference is that you have tenants complaining about each other and the property picks up more of the maintenance, like lawn mowing.There is a huge difference when you get to 5+ units as those are valued using the income method.
