However, I am purchasing a home in queens should be closing next week. 

We should be able to make an offer in a week or so, amount is $475k, 25% down.  

I have been soaking up as much info as I can these past few weeks and would like to start networking with anyone in the Chicagoland area.

How far is the family willing to go to a grocery store, sure there are convenience stores but for a weekly trip?

I bought two houses right here in SoCal this week... and today is only the first day of the week, and I can't see any reason why I would need to expand into another market, especially one that is on the other side of the country!

I might like to grab a six pack and pack of smokes just cuz it's so darn 'convenient'.

I've had two complaints in the past 2 weeks of not enough TP even though my ad says we provide a "start" and you may need to buy your own.

Simple weekly payments my customers can handle and not get in over their heads As well as rent to Own the land they sit onIn FL they would be separate according to Atty as they have not been petitioned to be conclvertes into real property yet 

Conditon of apartment is at time you take possession, so do a walkthru on that apartment within the first week or so of ownership.Ask owner to send or drop off to tenant letter of change of ownership this is usually done day of closing, and you also send or drop off letter of introduction including where and how to pay rent, and emergency service contact info. 

Hi BP,I'm excited to have found Bigger Pockets and have been on a BP podcast binge for two weeks now.
