@Elijah HouseholderCheck with your local planning department about permitting the building.

Low taxes, low cost to entry, landlord friendly.

I secured a 5.75 percent rate on a new build recently.

As of now, with estimating every house at 75K ( I figured high) with the interest at 7.5%, paying all taxes, muni fees, waste fees, and the salary of the manager at 35K a year, I would be netting 6K a month with the current layout.

There are no complicated models to build out.

I am a Real Property Appraiser 2 at my county tax office I am a long time listener of the podcast.

Not sure exactly where you are in upstate new york, but those taxes seem low. 

Insurance and taxes are a big part of the equation too.

It is a very system-driven profession and shouldn't be jumped into without the intention of building a business around it.

If you can't sell, you're probably not going to build a solid business.Don't make the mistake of romanticizing business ownership.
