Listed at $209,000 was able to negotiate down to $176,000.Plan to total gut and give this old beauty a 2025 face lift!!

I have been interview these folks and almost down to the right folks.What I am seeking from the community is experience from those that have done this and have been successful but also those that have pitfalls to learn from those to either not make the same mistake, or do what works. 

It’s also great for building a trusted brand in your market.5.Customer Service is KING: Prompt responses and proactive communication are non-negotiable.

I started by setting aside a percentage of my income every month, treating it like a non-negotiable expense.

The point most are trying to make and the advice given is directed toward successful investing.

That's where we've have the most success.

I moved from Portland OR and I now own a successful rental portfolio.

I’ve found success by focusing on emerging neighborhoods, avoiding flood-prone areas, and exploring short- or mid-term rentals to tap into the steady stream of tourists and business travelers.Good luck!
