Ask your employer if you can have your pay split up into three deposits, one to investments savings, one to your checking account for personal use on a daily basis, and one to an emergency account you can tap into so you don't have to tap into your investment savings.

I'm sure she would have liked to place our net worth in high dividend paying stocks held long term, and some bonds and CDs.  

All the add-ons are a la carte so you can definitely get a lot of value based on what you need.One thing I personally don't like is that when tenants pay rent, they are charged $1 per transaction for ACH use.

The cost effective way starting is partner with an established wholesaler and they provide people to reach out to or pay for lists and do cold calling/door knocking yourself. 

@Simon Packman Not sure where you’re located but I have Vermont Mutual in Northern New England for most of my properties and the most I’m paying for any of them is around $4400.

They pay rent before the due date, clean the property after every client, and if something breaks they usually repair it before I'm aware because their clients will give them bad ratings.

Quote from @Leeling Chew: It doesn't matter who pays the bills.

I also have a mortgage on this property paying $683 a month.Now I'm deciding should I continue waiting for a possible tenant or should I just sell the property.

I know you want to go full time and jump in, but I'd recommend staying with your day job as long as you can - it makes your life a lot more comfortable to have a steady stream of income to pay the bills every month!

@Cole Starin sometimes it makes sense to sell the WORST property in your portfolio.Another option is why do a LOC on the duplex, when you could just do a $100k cashout refi to pay off all your debt AND keep the property?
