It's a 4br/2ba furnished house in Colorado Springs, a mile from a private college.

I had a couple of bigger capital expenses - had to replace the refrigerator and an entire queen mattress/box spring set in one of the rooms, and I added a few things - fencing and some landscaping - but everything else was pretty normal stuff. 

I purchased another property in the Palm Springs area that I converted into an STR which is also cash flowing.Yes, there are absolutely cash=flowing properties out there but they are not low-hanging fruit. 

Planning to be living together in CLT for at the least 2+ years, after this- up in the air on staying or moving.

We are highly active in the areas of Independence, Raytown, Blue Summit, Sugar Creek, Lee's Summit, Grandview, Blue Springs, specific areas within the city, etc.We typically like to start with an initial phone call to discuss your investment goals/experiences, answer any questions you have, and tell you all about what our company has to offer.

I would stick to a more turnkey deal on the first one out of state then look at doing something like an Air bnb on the second or third deal. 

I currently have 2 homes under contract in your area for an investor (Spring and Conroe).

Small city tenants are a breath of fresh air.

Double-tapped breakers, all dishwashers did not function at all, multiple sinks and faucets actively leaked, Improperly installed flooring that had buckled, very high humidity in one units was causing moisture damage, furnaces full of drywall dust, radon systems that were not air-tight in the sump pit, and the list goes on and on.I listed just a few of what would ultimately be the longest repair request I've drafted in my career.  

Also, I won't profit right now from rental income - only my IRA will profit (yes I know it's me later in life), but I want more capital now so I can pay down my private student loan faster and repeat the process with other properties.The place is 1 mile from the beach, 2 minutes to the bus stop, 1 mile to the train, and less than 1/2 mile to a new mixed use development that will open this spring (just the 1st phase) and it's a 20 - 30 yr mixed use project.
