To make broad generalizations or assumptions about entire quadrants of the city being "problem areas" is an error in judgement, in my opinion.Now, there are areas on the west side that I definitely try to avoid, but if I have to go there, I make sure to do it in the morning hours when most of the delinquents are sleeping. 

Portions of car and truck payments, gas, insurance, repairs, maintenance, even 50% of meals get written off our income just to name a few.Leverage is always the way to go to maximize your return on cash-flowing investments.All the best!

I did speak with one this morning and was told the something I have been told previously.  

Good Morning,I'm new to active Bigger Pockets community.

There's a good one I used to attend Tuesday Mornings 8AM in Matthews at Jonathans Restaurant.

Consider if a modified schedule would work (like Tue-Thurs in the new town), or if you could drive there and back Mon morn and Fri afternoon...not for long term, but just long enough to keep the occupancy a few months longer.  

. $25 barely feeds a family of four a cheap meal.

In my area, they normally pay at the last minute, even the morning of the sale.Never seen a nice house with a big mortgage actually go thru with tax sale.Could happen.Who is the lender?

Good morning!

Good morning, I am just starting out with my first rental property purchase.
