Having a second pair of eyes is always helpful.

Like other local breweries, Pfriem occasionally pairs up with restaurants and do private meal pairings, go if you have the chance. 

If your potential agent deals in million + mansions and you’re looking for a $100K 1 bedroom condo - than it’s probably not a match.But if their main source of leads is from 1-2 bed condos in your price range, you probably found a good pairing.

I know you can get a cheap used washer and dryer off craigslist for as low as $150 for the pair (without the coin op features).

Another drawback of free laundry is that even if the tenant only uses it themselves, there is a better chance they run a load for a pair of socks, rather than waiting for a full load. 

Small towns like Adamstown and Point of Rocks area are slowly up and coming so i could see doing SFH rentals there or flipping distressed properties.MD doesnt have many multi family homes with tris or quads and even a lot of the duplexes in Frederick are all sold as single units so you arent even often buying the pair, so MD doesn't offer that aspect of buy and hold rentalsthere are a lot of people investing in MD, so i dont doubt  you can carve out a little piece of the market for yourself and make money i just think our market is very different than other markets.its not uncommon for people to drive 1+hr one way every day to work in the MD area and this is reflected in the housing situation as well. you can have people living in frederick, working off of 495. or even people living out of point of rocks area or along the potomac and taking the MARC train to work every day. 

If the unit is vacant, I book a pair of showings every 15 minutes. 

Thinking about hiring a consulting firm/person to review our P&L's, Insurance Plans, Taxes, maybe even walk the buildings and point out where we could be saving money and where we are spending too much.We self manage, so it would be great to get another pair of eyes on our operation.Any one here done something like that?

They find someone who wants to sell, and pair them up with someone who wants to buy.  

I like the idea of keeping them non-stacked in the kitchen, get a smaller pair, and put a countertop over it.
