(Though, admittedly, I know nothing about spec building or building on contract, I was just picking this guys brain but drew the conclusion that it wasn't necessarily as lucrative as I might have thought). 

Hi Drew,I just started using Cozy to manage my rentals: screening, application, rent collection, maintenance requests, etc, and so far it's been great.

I acquired my first rental property about 2 months ago and I drew on a home equity line of credit (HELOC) to make it happen.

@David Sun If the property is more north, I highly recommend Drew Fleshman for home inspections.

Hi folksI'm an investor up in the Washington DC area, where the returns on a holding strategy are small to nonexistent...I own three condos in addition to my house, and was looking at my long term plan the other day (which I drew up in 2013) and realized it is going to be an impossibility in the northern virginia market because returns are so slim.For example, my last deal was a 1br condo -- got it at $160k after hard negotiations, put $5k into it, and it currently rents for $1400, but there's also a $350/month condo fee.

Definitely check out the local meet-ups and reach out if you have any questions.Best,Drew
