you giving way to much benefit of the doubt to the realtor. especially new builds and salaried employees it's a whole other animal. thanks for the law brush up

Raising the rents, billing back utilities and growing the gross income on the park are all your future opportunities and for you to capitalize on.  

Management: Only when tenant occupied, the greater of: 5% of gross rent per month per unit or $100 per month per unit.B.

I self represented on my personal purchases while I was a W2 employee - worked out great :) 

That’s a pretty solid gross rent-to-price ratio (~1.6%), which is a positive sign for cash flow.

It's too small to have employees and efficiencies but more work than I'd want to handle myself relative to other interests.

Hiring a VA is like hiring anyone else, and sometimes more difficult since they're remote and you can't sit down and show them the ropes every day for a month until they learn it all- relocation, you might not have to relocate, I know there was one property manager on peter lohmanns podcast who only does remote PM, but they have some employees in the area in which they manage, so that might be worth finding and listening to.

He wasn't giving into the state and local governments mandate for employees to be forced to wear masks, get vaccines, etc and he started getting "threats" saying that he could be taken to court and have assets seized if he continues "breaking the emergency laws" during covid time.That could be viewed as an extreme example, but things like this worry me as I have my own company and employees.

@Dee Mandrekar highly doubtful there's such a big difference between market rent and S8 rent.First off, the GROSS S8 amount includes specific amounts for all utilities - electric, gas, water, trash, etc.We do NOT recommend including utilities in the rent because S8 only pays a certain amount and the owner is then exposed to tenant abuse of utilities. 

I hired my first employee just this weekend.
