I'm also a real estate bookkeeper.

I would project, 6 months, so if there are holding costs $2,270 a month (not including utilities), with utilities in about $2750.00. $2750x6 months= $16,500..

Some landlords try going the major renovation route, but it’s expensive, full of legal red tape, and not guaranteed to work.You’ll definitely want a solid real estate attorney who knows NYC rent laws.

It's a single mom with one cute toddler that works her butt off to raise her kid, hold a full-time job, and go to school at night.

My name is Logan and I am wanting to get into real estate investing and saw that this would be a good place to start! 

I’m always curious about the factors that make people decide on specific markets.If I can invest in any market in the US, it would 100% be Columbus Ohio - it's the sillicon valley of the Midwest, it's the Austin TX before it blew up, and it's one of the hottest and fastest growing real estate markets in the US (check any list and it's always top 10). 

I do not totally agree with having to find a job directly related to real estate estate in order to get into real estate. 

Knowing how much you still owe will help figure out the real cost of losing that low rate.Also, when it comes to borrowing the additional $170K, it’s key to know what kind of returns you’re expecting to make on that money.

I took the time to set it up and that property ended April 2024 at 100% occupancy.
