Get a job in property management.

Not my idea, this is from RichDad, but really good advice.I would suggest to do that on the side and think about a W2 job.

I’ve been in contact with the Better Business Bureau about them  cut your losses and go the other way. 

I am looking in the greater Austin area, with plans of securing a job and house-hacking a quadplex or triplex.

I am specifically looking in Essex county, MA because I want to house back close enough to my current W-2 job.

At minimum, stage the living room and primary bedroom to give it some warmth.That said, have you thought about cutting bait and putting your money into a market where the numbers actually work?

There’s a ton of investment pouring in, job growth, and a growing demand for housing.

They are out of control.Yes many times Rad has had job ads up for an “executive protection agent”.

Not to mention the economic development steps the town is taking in ensuring the growth of town (roads, schools, zoning) stays on par with the future expected population growth and new jobs that are going to be a result of the new factories opening.  

Also, focus on 2 years of job/income stability.Class D Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, all cashflow with little, maybe even negative, relative rent & value appreciationVacancy Est: 20%+ should be used to cover nonpayment, evictions & damages.Tenant Pool: majority will have FICO scores under 560 (almost 30% probability of default), little to no good tradelines, lots of collections & chargeoffs, recent evictions.
