Timing will make a big difference leasing this SFH in Seattle— if possible, aim for your vacancy to hit the market ~May 15th to June 15th, maximizing time on market for a June / July lease start date— this will give you the largest tenant pool, lowest vacancy time & highest rent.

Dan your market/assets/tenants are on a totally different level than a good majority of the rest of the country. 

As I tell all landlords, New Jersey is a different animal than any other state. 

The main differences (besides rates/underwriting guidelines) is what you can include in your renovation costs.

A good deal is different to everyone.

How long it takes to be financially ready is different for everyone.

Events like this give the opportunity to meet and talk to investors from all over the country, doing different kind of investing, and with a varied amount of experience.

Very big difference and be surprised if you had rats to be honest.

I'm sure you'll get differing opinions but this sounds more clean and simple to me.

I didn't end up doing the course but I had a very different selling experience from Wendy.
