Located after a letter writing campaign and purchased directly from the seller without a real estate agent.

We have had a pleasant and unexpected surprise of some appreciation over the past ten years in addition to rent increases to over $1k for good SFHs.

In my experience, it's crucial to be aware of these state-specific rules to avoid unexpected tax liabilities.

I also want you to get into the mindset of direct calling opposed to waiting to people to respond to your campaign.  

I would like to keep part of it for any unexpected expenses/emergencies I may find. 

Basically I’m just trying to figure out which direction to go in.

You might hit a few bumps in the road...tenants who imagine due dates are more like suggestions, or unexpected repairs that crop up at the worst possible moment...but that’s part of the ride.

I am going the exact opposite direction, we have two accounts.

Does anyone have any advice on which direction to go?
