Kudos to you for doing something to create a secondary income stream. there are 5 income streams in RE rentals, possibly six if you do things a certain way.The reality here is your model (buy box) is suffering from too high an entry and too high a cost of capital.

Purchased a little too high at the buy (I knew it at the time too), does a little better than breaking even on cashflow, and took too long to rehab.

The risk of property damage or a lawsuit from a dog bite is too high. 

Hi everyone,I am currently a high school senior turning 18 in a month.

This influx of high-paying jobs (averaging $60 per hour) is expected to draw a significant number of professionals to the area, boosting demand for housing and various services.

I highly suggest you go.And it's VEGAS!!!

I see two high end homes for rent, 50k, 70k, 210k per month..

We did get much lower costs when we changed to minisplits but the initial cost is high.

BiggerPockets also has a calculator to analyze deals, and I highly recommend you start this as soon as possible, even if you are not ready to buy.

My husband is a high income W2 earner, and meeting active criteria would put some of our tax dollars back in our pocket.
