Hi all,I am a first time real estate investor in the South Palm Beach County area, and am looking at a few properties online (mainly Zillow and Realtor.com) and trying to run some numbers.

Hello all,I have previous experience with real estate, but first timer with both raw land and tax auctions in Texas and I'm realizing now just how little I know when it comes to land.

It needed a new roof, new septic tank, water heater, well pump, hardwood floor refinishing, light reno in kitchen (paint cabinets, replace countertops, 1 new appliance), full bathroom renovation on 2 bathrooms cleaning up wood rot on siding, painting exterior.

I am a part time real estate investor (own a triplex I rent) with a W-2 job.

House is 1280sq ft with 2 bathrooms, kitchen, and laundry in the garage.

And it is only 1500 sqft for both units, so rent will be limited based on the small size and you still have to maintain kitchens and bathrooms for two units, which means high maintenance cost to rent ratio. 

There are also 2 indoor cameras: one in the kitchen to make sure nobody forgets to turn off the gas oven or leave the sink full of dish.

New paint, Floors, Kitchen, Bathrooms, Hardware, Windows, Light Fixtures, and Appliances.

Need real estate agent and property management advice Hey Jyothi, I moved to Columbus a few years ago (from Portland, Oregon which was super expensive) to become a full time real estate investor, and ever since, I've completed quite a lot of BRRRRs, flips, and own a successful rental portfolio here in Columbus Ohio.

Larger-scale projects like full bathroom remodels, kitchen remodels, or primary suit additions tend to cost homeowners significantly more and return much less on the investment.
