We have had all kinds of issue with the water meter reading too, and getting lot rent invoices in a timely manor.

Metron and Southern Water Management are two that we've been talking to.

I stopped at the "right" part.You need to start interviewing PMs in Austin, getting a feel for prices to renovate(hvac, water heater, floors for material + labor, etc.).

A 3/2 in CA is a bargain for $300K while in our markets, $300K would get you a move in ready 4/2 on the water. 

.✅ Maintenance & Repairs Handled – No more emergency calls at 2 AM about a broken water heater!

@Polat Caglayan The majority of investors who become involved in the section 8 program do so because they purchase lousy real estate and leasing the units to section 8 tenants is the best option on the table.

Hi Joshua,To gain a clearer understanding of the overall condition of the home—including plumbing, electrical systems, HVAC, and the roof—and to identify any major issues such as asbestos, water damage, mold, foundation concerns, or wood-destroying insects, I strongly recommend having the prospective properties thoroughly inspected.

For many, it allows people to test the waters to see if they enjoy being a landlord. 

@Paige Gardner it depends on the person. hml are my last resource, it's a option for sure. 75% too high for me. that's the game for them, that's how they make its money. don't take it off the table but definitely explore ur options. 

If you buy a hot water heater for the other unit, you can write off 100% because you have no personal use of that hot water heater. etc.
