I'm looking to get into a 3 or 4 flat and hoping to reduce my personal housing bill while gaining all the joys of owning and managing a property!

If you're buying and holding for the long-term, it's not the end of the world, but know that you will have trouble selling if the market goes flat or sour as your 3.5% down is eaten up by a lot of rolled in fees and when selling you need to account for 5-6% realtor fees. 2.

Need to budget for roof(looks like a flat roof/15 year life span),hvac,hot water heater,painting,cabinets,etc.

I hear they have an awesome panel of speakers tonight! 

I’m particularly interested in a 3-4 flat to maximize my FHA loan.

There Is some good information in this other post. https://www.biggerpockets.com/...It sounds like they were doing some kind of flat fee for the cooking gas.

Its happening right now to my portfolio, and i am flat after a year's investing.So every year investor comes out flat - and we are talking a normal market - not recession.

And there isn't a ton of flat land in Beckley that would be available to build the kind of complex they are going to need soon.

Most of the interior was paneling so Sheetrock, Sheetrock, and more Sheetrock so that lesson would be to sub out the Sheetrock if your not a broke college kid like we were!

@Juliette Lerner most CPAs bill on flat fee so you can call around and get other quotes during their off season if you want.
