Everyone will tell you it’s great to get started early, or you can just move after a year, but in the current environment in our region the rent your property will generate after you move out will likely be less than your mortgage, if you are tied to the area and feel confident you want to stay in whatever property you buy for 3-5 years go for it, if you want flexibility rent and throw that money into and index fund. 

With the way my portfolio and pipeline is arranged I can understand why the construction management or brokerage verticals are most enticing but it still feels too transactional which is what I want to avoid.

I’m not local, so I’m trying to get a feel for what it’s actually like making deals in this market right now.

I have a feeling this is going to be a long and painful process.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

I like using these for just this case.Another item to consider is since this is a 2nd floor I wouldn't be that worried since the 1st floor will heat the 2nd floor enough to not allow frozen pipes.I would also talk to an HVAC person because I believe they can also put a device to cycle the heat a few times a day or even put a secondary thermostat in the apt to take care of the minimum issues.I feel for you because otherwise you have a great tenant.

I'm curious if you feel like you're using 50% of the features in GHL, 75%, 80%+ or??? 

Already feel welcome!
