Hi all,My name is Ray Southern and I'm looking to break into the world of REI.I've been a web engineer in Chicago for going on 15 years now, almost completely self-taught.It's been a great career, but I need to start looking ahead to retirement.I have no experience in real estate, except a condo I bought in 2008 as my primary residence, right before the market tanked.I'm still in the condo, did some refinancing, and plan on keeping it for good (great neighborhood), maybe renting it out if I start a family and need to move.My overall plan?

Again, I've learned more at BP web site than all the education info I've seen in the past 10 years.   

A quick web search looks like Montana is pretty lenient on disclosure forms, but you should check with your local real estate experts to be sure.If a buyer learns of it I would certainly expect them to want a discount or to shy away from the property.

It seems on a web browser you can view more information about users/members but on the app everyone is private.

@Carl LeggDo you want a set of docs from a web marketing firm and a pat on the back, or would you prefer access to quality and meaningful support?

Time to hit the books as they say and absorb everything on this web site that is being offered.

I investigated your ideas on the web.

There are two power systems, battery operated or hard wired, which allow the meter to communicate with a wireless router that sends the data to a database at the company (this is accessable to you the owner/property manager via the web) and then a bill is sent to the tenants automatically at a interval that you set.

@Alina Trigub I mainly work with web applications.

Hello BP Community,I love this web site and want to thank @Joshua Dorkin, @Brandon Turner and @David Greene for the great Podcast!
