Im used to Boston area reno costs but have 0 idea what they're like here. 

@Erik Pfundstein I live and work in Boston area and haven't made it to a NH REIA meeting yet, but I do attend some networking events around Boston. 

I'm on the fence, and I'd like to get some expert opinions from the community members on a property I'm considering as a long term rental (Background: I own a few properties in this area)Market: Boston (mostly an appreciation play)Price: $1,150,000Property type: 2-familyCondition: older property, but recently updated (newer roof, hvac system, electrical, exterior and interior paint)Potential total rent: $8,200 Please provide your thoughts.

You could keep on with adding more and more until your suitcases are so full that you are spending hundreds of extra dollars on transporting your luggage to and from your trip.

I am a landlord here in Boston and own a 3 family.

It depends on how many passengers you need to transport, what else you need to haul, how far you are driving, your budget, your personal preferences, and many other factors. 

I'm an investor turned agent and have invested primarily in the greater Boston area (3 condos and a multifamily) and am involved in a large syndicate down in Houston also.

San Francisco, Hawaii, Los Angeles, Seattle, Boston are examples of primary markets which are NOT ideal for cashflow investing.

Will your fee cover the cost of transportation or any helping hands that you hire for furniture assembly?
