Why are you sending me the information about home advisers do you feel confident that they are worthy contractors ? 

Since it's your first property, I might advise you to avoid something with water damage, as there can be a whole host of other nasty surprises hiding in the walls.

But you can deduct certain expenses on your business days (consult with tax adviser).  

Can't decide if this is a good business decision or a petty decision.Tenants provided 17 day notice to vacateTenants were advised that they are in violation of the lease by not providing 30 days notice.  

The buyer I had lined up before listing on MLS found my house FSBO on Zillow so I thought listing on MLS would generate more traffic.

At 20% down, you could theoretically control $670,000 worth of home value with your 134k down payment. 3b) If you could find properties that meet the 1% rule, that would mean generating $6,700/month in rents vs the $1,300 you have nowThat's how I would recommend thinking about it! 

Does anybody know any good property managers from the Charlotte area who they have worked with?

I would tell you to talk with your agents in your local office and see how they generate leads.

I plan to by 1 property in year 1, 2 in year 2, 3 in year 3, and so on with a final goal of 10 properties paid in full all generating passive cash flow.

Please advise.
