I just have a coffee with him before Christmas and I raise the issue on the flipping.

The fact they are complaining online might be an indication the property manager dealt with them properly so be sure to ask the manager for their side of the story.I hope this basic guide helps.

War stories and simple camaraderie, decorating / upgrade ideas, speculation on trends.. this is good stuff for a coffee/beer for sure - just don't underestimate your reach merely because you're a few hours (or days) away.

The numbers look decent but should I increase anything and is it normal to come in and hit tenants with a fee that they currently don't pay (water, garbage and sewage), which would be an $83 fee.

Plus, if you're buying from a wholesaler, they will likely just be assigning the contract to you which means there is going to be an assignment fee built-in to the price and the bank isn't going to finance that so you'll have to come out of pocket for the cost of whatever that fee is (usually at least $5k).

Reach out if your coming to the cities if you would like to meet up for coffee.

Lunch, Dinner, Coffee?

I’m looking for recommendations on Bay Area meetups for our of state investing, or looking to meet up for coffee if any out of state investors see this!

., if anyone is in the DC area and has advice on investing at a distance I'd love to connect and maybe grab a cup of coffee.

I know some of it may be an estimation but I have been curious to see how long it would take to make a  profit from a deal such as this.
