Hey Mohammed,Thank you for your response, and I appreciate your interest in being on my buyers list.

Markets generally slow during the fall/winter season.

Quote from @Samantha Suero: Hi Jaycee, thanks for your response!

I appreciate your response and hopefully we will get a chance for an in-person at one of the meetups. 

If it's on your property, it's your responsibility. 

You want an accountant who can help you strategize and who is responsive when you want to know the consequences of the financial decisions you are making throughout the year.There are over 20 real estate accountants on this site.

I did not want to incur the cost but I figured...that maybe....just maybe....sometime in the near future us ADU home owners may be able to rent both units....like a duplex.At that point it will be worth it to let the tenets be responsible for their own bills.Not saying that other ways are bad...they are actually very cost effective if you are living there...but what about as you scale your business and move onto other properties.This of course if your city will allow you to rent both units...the city I am in is tough but things can change as more pressure is being put on affordable housing.Once again...not saying any way is right or wrong...I just did it this way for the reason I just mentioned.Thank you....

In response, I had a plumber and a water restoration company come to assess the situation.The restoration company cut into the drywall, and the plumber thoroughly inspected all the pipes, performed a leak test, and conducted a pressure test.

The market isn't going to take off and leave you behind tomorrow--you have time to take this slow and learn, observe, and review offerings without making an investment until you are ready. 

Sounds like an inexperienced investor who can't take personal responsibility for the fact that you can't handle being in the low income rental business.I don’t agree with you, I could have just gone on redfin and bought a turnkey or asked an agent in Akron area to help me get one.
