@Cody Blackburn i must say quit impressive to have such amount in savings. i totally agree with @Toi Perry on you listening to the biggerpockets podcast to determine what will work best for you. but for my recommendation. i will go the buy and hold route. i am new as well and that is what i am saving up for.

I did not move forward under the impression that the tenant will pay 1400/month AND cover the HOA costs. 

All that flash doesn't impress me much i need the facts.

First impressions mean everything. 

I like the idea of simply paying for this service but wasn't overly impressed with this particular company. 

I have to say out of everything that has impressed me the most about Fund & Grow is the convenience of being able to grab a phone and simply communicate through text.

I haven’t actually hired his firm yet, but he has done some really impressive preliminary work.  

thanks @James Martin  from some other threads, I was under the impression that with NSC, Flood Insurance and regular coverage, the monthly bill would run $300-400 per month! 

It's a contender for me.In all my recent searches I'm impressed with the amount of A.I. or higher level of intelligence is built into systems now. 

You must never give the impression that you have a very happy marriage or a very troubled one.
