Hi BP,I am officially closed on my first deal.

Mom and Pop shops are not that great at accounting and the numbers tend to look like they can't afford to live so take that in to account plus the operations they are doing. 

Here is another thread on the topic of multifamily and syndication coaching programs from just a week ago or so.

If so, how do I get around this or at least make it to where only the rental income from the property is taxable locally? 

Hi Everyone,So, I live in a location (Rockville, MD) mostly consisting of high-priced properties and find it difficult to consider SFHs for buy-and-hold purposes. 

Example of overcharges included* $300 for cleaning windows and cabinets after entire house was professionally cleaned* $80 to replace HVAC filter after entire HVAC system was replaced* $700 for a small list of punch items - 2 door stops, raking backyard, removing satellite dish in backyard and trimming bushesAfter terminating relationship, owner decided to send a termination charge for $450 (contract does stipulate it) - even though the company has not done squat and never placed a tenant and already charged so called 'set up' fee of $300..

A friend of mine told me that "Bigger Pockets" was the place to be, so I'm reaching out here with my first post.

Thank you so much for the advice!

Thank you so much Mohammed, that really cleared things up for me.
