My pro50 code had expired and this ones saves me even more!!!

NJ is a big one—places like Newark, Paterson, or even smaller towns have better cash flow potential.

Also perhaps the homes built in the last 10 years have sprinkler systems and even drip systems near the foundation to keep the soil moist.Look for signs when you are viewing homes....especially in the hot areas.When we evaluate homes, especially with buyers we're looking at the BIG 5 as best we can. 

Happy to connect with you and even have you come see some of my current projects.

You could look into enforcing late fees if your lease allows it or even start the eviction process to show you're serious.

Try a local mortgage broker who can likely even run an income scenario for you.If not, there would be many DSCR folks like ourselves that would be happy to help.

I have friend who has a running joke that I cannot even get on one.

I’d even consider finishing the basement, just well enough for me to live down there, so I could rent out ALL the units.I’d save all my cash and look to refi the property in 1-2 years out of the FHA mortgage, so I could use it again if necessary.

Even if you break even, you will lose money every month it sits vacant, when you need repairs, property management, etc.

Even though the FMRs are $730, I was conservative and used $600 for my Pro Forma- The current owner hasn’t raised them at all because he didn’t want any turnover- outside of cleaning and painting, no big costs- Not Section 8
