We aired it out, washed the floors and walls, used an ozone generator, deep cleaned everything, aired it out, painted, aired it out again and essential oils at the end sealed the deal.

You get to be very clear up front and it relieves you of all liability.

We are usually viewed as having deep pockets and the media love, to shine a negative light on us, especially recently.

In that the ability to dramatically raise rents is in deep question through end of year anbd maybe beyond.Just for punching more numbers lets do a rent raise: 1000+1300+1300 x 12 x 0.6 (say only 40% expense ratio since so nice fixed up and turn over guessed to be low) = $26.9kAnd 8% cap (whats cap rate in your area??)   

It's called a contract, partnership agreement, and/or "we really are investors and we know what we're doing" agreement.If you're asking about a bank account, then you're in too deep. 

@Patrick Pierre I haven't really dived too deep into looking for a partner, but it's definitely worth considering.

My fiancé and I have now officially paid off our debts and can’t wait to really deep dive into real estate investing, starting with a house hack for our first deal.

Tenants will be paying the bulk of your mortgage payments, you’ll build equity via principal paydown and appreciation, more tax benefits of owning vs renting, and you’ll be living very subsidized and able to save that much more cash to roll into your next investment property.How deep into the process have you gone?

Better to have deep knowledge of an area than quick glances at tons of random properties.

I appreciate your response no I don’t pay any utilities at all and there is no HOA deep down inside I want to leave it like that and just take the cash flow but I know the right thing to do is to re-hab the building.
