To pay for this, I used a heloc on my current home.

depending on how backed up the county is it can e take a few months for court date. in essex county it took my mother in law about 8 months or so for the full process. she had an attorney, not sure if that sped anything up

@Jim LynchSome typical minimum tenant screening requirements look like the following, but it depends on your market:-Renter has a gross monthly income of 3x more than the monthly rent-Minimum credit score of 650-Renter must have no prior evictions-No felons (or other notable criminal history)There are a number of different tenant screening softwares out there such as Zillow Rental Manager, TransUnion SmartMove, etc.Be sure to complete an employment verification by contacting the renter's employer and confirm the details they shared with you, landlord verification (if they have a previous landlord), credit check, and background check.

Hey @Alex Moazeni, feel free to PM me.

These programs offer options for less money down and in some cases DPA - Down payment assistance.As a banker for over 18+ years I am very skeptical when I hear a new name in the business only because its become tougher to lend with all of the new laws and credit/insurance requirements and regulations.  

With your income, you may qualify for an FHA loan with a smaller down payment, but buying now could limit your borrowing power and increase monthly payments.

Your property manager should be supplying monthly reports and year end PnL reports that you give directly to your CPA. 

am working with them now and had the first policy (with Spinnaker) cancelled for nonpayment/late payment so we rewrote another policy (with Millenial) and having the same payment problem again but at least they are communicating that cancellation is coming. they want me to pay by credit card over the phone so the payment wont be late and cancelled again. but when i go to mycoverageinfo.com to check on status it shows its been paid.

I was going to wait to build my portfolio bigger before starting an numbered company, but I'd like to hear what the BP community has to offer in words of advice.Here are the current numbers I'm working with.
