You don't want negative feedback on your review.I don't like to make repairs. 

Power washing the exterior, repairing the driveway, and painting the front door.

The rental is currently managed by my husband and I and I do the paperwork and lease etc, and hire contractors or husband does light repairs.

Easier to predict expenses - typically no major repairs unless from association3.

You'll need 20% down plus reserves for other costs as well as repairs and vacancies. 

Usually companies are charging 10% on top of maintenance repairs, in addition to one months rent as a placement fee for leasing unit.

On paper we were slightly in the red but much of that is due to one-year expenses/repairs & allowable transportation costs to get up to the property for work days ourselves. 

Any home you buy with $20,000 is likely going to be a fixer-upper, which means it can be heavy on repairs, turnover costs, vacancies, etc.

You should ensure the property is inspected regularly, maintain climate control to manage moisture and temperature, and address small issues like leaks or cracks early to prevent costly repairs.
