ideally there are separate meters for each unit so whomever is living in each unit can pay their own utilities. 

If we could cover our mortgage that would be ideal, but we could handle not getting any rent if it comes to that as we have some reserves.

Ideal if I can fire him and not let him get the full commission.

But I will rebalance and get it ideal later in the year. 

I'd ideally like to buy and hold, but I do plan to evaluate my plan and the market once I'm done with the renovation in the next 3-6 months.

Although some amount of cash flow would be obviously be ideal.

My intention is to have this initial seed investment be both a way to provide security for my new family, ideally security that requires little to no out-of-pocket expenses for us monthly, and eventually can cash flow upon our exodus.

Having a diverse mix of accounts, including credit cards, auto loans, mortgage loans, etc., will ensure you get the highest score in this area.

If it’s close to 90, I feel better; if it’s 80 or below it’s a management issue or the local economy is not doing well.In an ideal situation, more than 50% of the units on a property are 2-bedroom or more.

ideally I would go with a SFH (as it appreciates better) but the price to enter is quite high in the prime areas.Thoughts?
