No adding or subtracting.

My personal take is investing is hard enough without having the added complexity of building a remote team of folks that can handle things for out of state deals.

I have yet to have one late charge added to a tenant.   

Example, A+ neighborhood 5 minutes away is seeing gentrification and someone buys a property that is in a D area, but maybe in 5 years they will still be holding that property and now that area is seeing a lot of growth.

@Jorge Vazquez we stopped doing signs over 10 years ago.We had a separate phone number on our signs, so were able to track traffic & applications from them.We were getting more & BETTER leads from our online ads then the signs - so an easy choice to stop using them (also time & money savings).

Using a 1031 to upgrade to a two-family could help you reduce or eliminate the $1,000 out-of-pocket expense you’re paying now.Also, condos often come with HOA fees that limit cash flow, so be mindful of their impact.

They are out of control.Yes many times Rad has had job ads up for an “executive protection agent”.
