Thank you all for the great reading and research material- I never would have found this home or a lender willing to work with me and my bad credit without it!

This will help guide you through your investing career and keep you focused.

Being the best house in a Bad Neighborhood usually doesn't make it sell.I don't know the DFW Market - but 55 Days is long for most Texas markets. probably time to cut Bait (Price) eat the loss and move on! 

Two things that were rough at times were getting the contractors to work a full week and getting tenants took a little longer than expected, probably because it was a bad time of year and we screen our potential tenants very well. 

@David Gonzalez possibly but the timing is not great and it would likely be in a bad neighborhood.

@Jeff Kehl1/19622/Furnace/water heater 3/Cleveland Hts4/Our existing PM 5/Sorry,we are using a private lender.My bad.6/Most interior repair is minor stuff like repairing rodent damage,small mold and paint/flooring in select units.

Doesn’t look like a bad deal by the numbers .

A lot of historically bad areas like Compton and Watts have really calmed down and are seeing major appreciation (Watts has been crazy for that the last two or three years), and there can be good opportunities.

Probably not a bad idea to run the next hypothetical deal by your bank and see in their eyes, which property would allow for the most leverage to be created for the next deal.Great problem to have, 2 good deals.

With all that now I’m getting the ac don’t work again so I send out a ac tech I explain to them the the tenants are claiming that the ac isn’t cold enough that the Edison guy that took off the summer saver box off the ac fan told him the ac needs a Freon boost I’m really  now the  Edison guy is a ac tech the ac was running cold now it’s not working .well the ac tech did a leak test ,pressure test and said it was fine  but it looks like it was tampered with he also said if there was a leak there wouldn’t be Freon in the system still so I payed him to fill it up  since there was  few pounds of Freon still in the system he also asked me when was the last time i serviced the ac  I told him about a year ago .he said that long ago if there was a leak  there would be nothing in the system so after paying a few hundred dollars ,now I get another call saying the ac is blowing hot air .so I send the ac guy back  .the same ac guy said looks like it’s been tampered with.so now I decide to pay for home warranty insurance after the second repair and now  the tenants threatened to sue me.for my fist rental this is a bad experience of tenants trying to scam me and the plumber his freind doing fraud.i later called the water company again spoke to the manager this time explained what going on.he said just tell the tenants to call and give a one time to talk about the bill that I don’t have to be on the account so i did they refused again.
