Hi all, Brand new here.

a break even BRRRR is definitely not something a brand new investor who isn't well capitalized should try. 

I spend an inordinate amount of time trying to fight against the tide of YouTube gurus that encourage brand-new investors to set up an LLC before even buying their first home.

My property manager is refusing to give me a copy of an invoice for a brand new air conditioner.

Anyone here have any advice on where and what to purchase (brand, kind, etc...)

Unable to estimate appreciation potential because it’s brand new and no room to add on or make improvements, but over time I do think some appreciation due to prime location.

3) Aside from washing the walls or getting a full repaint quoted, would it be reasonable to deduct the expected cost of "Kilz" paint/odor sealant brand for effected square footage?

Your tenants are customers, properties are your product and reputation is your brand.

to me its market dependent and hind sight you know what they say.so for me it was selling the 2 homes I had in Palo Alto and one in MIlpitas.Milpitas I bought that brand new for 79k  Palo Alto one of them I paid 180k for and the other 350k.. if I held those until today..

@Oliver EvansStarting small and allowing investments to grow over time is a successful approach.
