Property is located in a very desirable area that will bring in high rents.

As time went on, our desire to vacate the remaining tenant in order to rent as a LTR became a pipe dream. 

I don't have a desire or passion enough for real estate to do the work involved in getting a team together or purchasing an OOS rental with the leftover money.

If you find a rockstar investor agent or a rockstar lender they will know and associate with other rockstars.My point is instead of trying to figure out which to find first, try to find a rockstar at either one and you will likely find a rockstar lender and rockstar investor agent.If you desire a referral for a local rockstar lender PM me. 

Hey Aaron,I 100% support the decision to split the electric, as that is the legal and most fair way to do things, and will increase the desirability of the property whenever it comes time for you to sell. 

If the property is in a top neighborhood like you say, it should appreciate just fine.I always look for properties in desirable areas. 

There are more stable, desirable cities across the country that will yield better results.

Before accepting my offer of $1.6M, the listing agent wanted to walk through my home to ensure that it was desirable and ready to list.

If median rent for a market a market is $800 or $900 but only $600 in a particular area, it's a pretty good indication that it's not a very desirable area and less than C class.

But make sure the colors are those that will be considered desirable to other tenants in the future.
