I am not the manager for your property (I am in FL). 

Yes, I think it's important to invest in properties that can flex with the market.

Hello, I’m reaching apps to use to manage an investment property.

I'd also talk to the tenant as there is no way a landlord, especially a property management company, would let anyone move in without having paid the first month's rent.

I'm happy to help connect you with professional and helpful agents or property managers from Pensacola to Panama City!

This could potentially drive up the price on the subject property. 

My primary residence is debt free as is my rental property-- the thought is the rental will supplement the retirement income and I'm not chasing ROI/ COCr / vacancies / etc.Thanks for the welcome! 

My wife an i are just closing on a property in Truckee, we intend to move into the property in ~2 years.

One option is I can cash out refi one property that has $400k in equity. 

If you rehab a house in one of the neighborhoods you're considering will it be surrounded by other abandoned distressed properties or are these abandoned properties located in decent neighborhoods that people will want to live?
