What is a ballpark cost on a foundation for something that is 500 sq. ft. and then making sure it has a working plumbing system?

Currently finalizing details on a new construction home as my first rental. House is 148,000 with sod and sprinklers. 141,000 without. I’m planning on zeroscaping the front yard and for sure having grass in the backya...

It was a project started this decade where the city of Atlanta has repurposed an old rail system (out of use) and is putting in connected neighborhood parks, 10-ft wide bike, scooter, walk, run path, and a light rail system adjacent to it, all the way around the downtown area of Atlanta.

That’s the difference a great manager and a great system can do for your property.Did I miss anything?

@Joel Owens I think you're overlooking the fact rent control helps landlords who know how to game the system.

Its the city workers and courts systems, rather than the tenants, that are the worse.

I'm still working on making sure my systems are on in place before I purchase a multifamily.

Yes, I'm still seeing recording take up to 90 days in some locations...in others it's only a week or two...The three MLS systems that I'm a member of all have requirements that property status information must be updated in the system within a day or two -- if you close on a sale and don't update the MLS listing within a day or two (specific time limit varies based on MLS), you will get fined.I don't know any agents who ever even check on the recordation status of their properties -- the closing agents generally just tell the buyers, "If you don't get a stamped deed back from the county within a couple months, let us know..."

Is it possible for an investor to gain access to the MLS without an agent?
