@Stewart VanValkenburg Yeah, from day one I would had to file eviction papers…only way to ferret out the truth.

For learning, I would recommend podcasts & youtube because you can listen on the go.Biggerpockets, Rod Khleif, Cash Flow Guys & Michael Blank are some of the ones that helped me get started years ago.

(you will be singing Aladdin's song) " whole new world"  cos what you want is basically learn how to get and catch the fish , and for that there is a lot of components, such as the Rod, the catch , the current , the river, etc( you get my point right now you are getting the fish and trying to eat the fish our resale the fish .. ( nothing wrong with that ) Is just a matter of what you are trying to accomplish.  

As to raising value, I'd say a renovation (if needed, bearing in mind that not everything adds value i.e. new curtain rods and bathroom fixtures aren't going to add $3k in equity, typically), additions, upgrades, etc.

Our question is do any of you all have any knowledge of Rod Khleif and would you recommend them?

Hi @Matt Crow  I agree with @Richard C. and @Will Stewart this is not a "too good to be true" deal.Other expenses to consider: Property Mgmt of 6-10% (even if you self-manage), vacancy rate (at least 5%), water/sewer (I, as the owner, pay quarterly for my multis in Manchester), and Maintenance/Repairs.
