For example, I think the guy that you had wanted to fix and flipping but when he saw how hard it was, he ran.

On a side note: I'm a big fan of time blocking, productivity systems, and practice The ONE Thing methodology.My hubby is working towards getting his real estate license by end of year, and our plan was to work together as a husband-wife team in the short-term and long-term.Most of the advice I've received from my broker and other seasoned agents is that I need to consider going full-time, or I'm at risk of washing out or not reaching my income goals.

Doesn't make sense to me that I would do that; shouldn't it just be a wash for 2018. 

My wife is concerned about not getting the return on this expense, and she agrees with Carson regarding power-washing/cleaning and repairing the driveway. 

If you can charge for a garage spot, extra storage, coin op laundry, etc. there are ways to make other forms of monthly income to cover if not off set property management costs all together.Don't forget late fees. 

Or at this point is it pretty much wash, rinse, and repeat?

Private equity is a service provider (sort of like a "shoe shine". or a "car wash", or "barber", just on a different scale.)

Will also add a mud room which would be connected to the new (relocated) laundry room next to the rear entrance.

We also remodeled the office and laundry areas.

For about $5K in updates you should be able to rent quicker, and get a better class of tenant, and the updates should last 5 years or more.The door to the laundry should be closed in the picture of the living room, then a separate pic of the washer dryer.
