For example, a 3bd 2bt single family like the one I'm looking at is around $1700_$1800 vs same size brand new condo would be over $2500 and people still accept to rent.

Hi everybody, I'm brand new to this forum and brand new to purchasing investment property.

Hello all,I am brand new to RE investing and have been fascinated by all the opinions and strategies posted by others!

It is very awesome you started your own student-ran organization at Wayne State it will start to build a brand foundation for you.

But I am brand new in the business.  

Our tenants just moved out and left our home dirty with stained carpet (which was brand new when they got there) lots of scratches on the wood floor, holes in the walls, chipped paint and large scratches in walls.

I'm brand new to real estate but I have no issue investing my time and resources to REI.

It's about building a consistent brand and presence in the community. 

For a 2/1, I received these quotes with permits 14k electric,  8k furnace/duct, 2k central air, 2.5k floors sanding/ synteko, 10k bath,  12k kitchen, $30/$50 sheet of drywall,  3k paint,  roof was about 7k, demo 3k, concrete demo/new $12 s/f, windows $250/$400 depends on brand, then GC fees,  etc. 

I’m a week or two out from starting demo and site prep for a brand new double wide.
