Some may want to leave without the responsibility of cleaning.

We're willing to live almost anywhere in the greater Sacramento area based on what we can afford, provided of course that the property is in a decent neighborhood that has a good chance of attracting responsible tenants.As for budget, I believe we could get a conventional loan for properties up to $600k, but my strong preference is to find a distressed property (or seller!)

I'd be surprised if the complex doesn't have individually metered units so you may be able to eliminate the utility expenses unless those are for common areas like walk ways, parking lot or laundry.

Readers should seek professional advice.Great responses hereHowever, full site visits, though more expensive, maximize tax savings by capturing every depreciable asset and offer better audit protection....This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.

There are definitely some hiccups with it being a small company, but I do have to say that their response time on tickets is really fast.
