Does anyone have a "program" or formula to use to establish a reasonable list price based on current income and expenses.

The term "reasonable" is going to be redefined.

I'm not anti coaching or mentorship at all.

What are the main reasons condos are considered vastly inferior?

I suspect part of the reason might be because I have a no-alcohol policy for my property, which I understand might draw a lot of people away to some extent.

Let me know if you have different information I went to visit the factories in Las Vegas (great reason to go to Vegas..lol) and its impressive.

I currently have around 20k cash for a down payment and that is steadily increasing so I want to pull the trigger soon.I'm interested in Fort Wayne for a few reasons:- I have some family in the area (they won't be involved, but have some general knowledge of the area)- Decent schools- Low crime- Airport- Low pricesAny advice or connections are welcome as I am completely new to this.

I am mainly a buy-and-hold Investor for this reason.

I believe it is completely reasonable to have a clause in your lease that places a cap on utilities with any overage (proven by a bill) being the responsibility of the resident.Our clause states that any electrical bill (we don't have gas, and water has never been a problem) that is over double the same month's bill from last year will have the overage assigned as a fee.It is important to keep your bookkeeping straight if you do assess a fee.
