for that rent amount you don't have  lot of margin for repairs, and you'll definitely want DURABILITY.I would say a prefab shower, but with a window there it certainly makes that more expensive.Is this something you budgeted for when you bought the place?

Good luck :)PS  and I didn't say a thing about wholesalers and not taking title!  

I'd say a good number is 5 but again, the answer is so open and being my first property I'd like some insight on what's a good number and whether something should be allowed or not.

@Christopher Griffin  there are many choices out of state.. first define the asset class are you looking to put your toe in the water buying say a SFR to start.. or are you and your colleagues pooling resources so that you maybe able to buy multi family... 

This case was settled and I think now perhaps I will say a few things: For starters I have been Investing In real estate for just under 3 years now and have invested in over 65 houses, bought two apartment buildings and currently own over 30 apartments at 25 years old.

I would say as long as you’re doing one of the two you’re on a pretty good path.

Even at 15k in rehab he is only close to 2% as martin would say as they would have to collect 1038 to be at 2%.... 

On average, barring absolute negligence, what are plaintiffs be awarded now a days for say a broken leg or so.

I would say a realistic expectation is between 3% to 5%. 

I would say a perfect way to start my real estate investments career.
