I would never ever pay for a service, I do not believe they can analyze the nuances that I can.

I have my real estate license and am currently working with a few investors searching for larger multi family units.  

Here are a couple of things I do not need. 1) I don't need to be contributing to the account, I am rolling over two other IRA accounts into it. and 2) I don't ever want to take a loan from it and replace before tax money with after tax money.

Set your goal, plan your steps to achieve that goal and master each step till you can duplicate it, then scale it to larger properties and investments.  

And do you work on larger 10 to 20 unit apartment buildings?

We do have a larger sample size in Denver so it is a bit more difficult to get a read on the Springs market.  

In regards to your current deal, I would be hesitant because even though you will be able to afford the mortgage payment and it looks like you have a renter already in place, there is still a lot more that would need to be figured in.1) Taxes ( Not sure in your area, but you could find out very easily or this may already be included in your payment)2) Cap Expenditure (Figure at least $100/mo)3) Repairs (Figure at least $100/mo)4) Property management (8-10% of current rental rate roughly $150) - I know you may manage it yourself but if you ever decide not to, you want to take that into consideration so you can plan for that.5) Vacancy Rate (5-10% of current rental rate $75-$150) - even though you have a renter you have to plan for the worst case scenario if something happened to him and you were unable to find someone to rent to.So if you add the above that is an additional $425-$500 not including your monthly taxes.  

If I ever am, I will accept the fact that I might not come out of it "made whole" - meaning I might lose some rent, there may be damage to the property that I cannot collect, I might have a vacancy, I might have to spend time and energy marketing, showing, and re-renting a property that should not have a vacancy.

Best decision I've ever made.

I love chatting with like minded people, let me know if you'd like to connect sometime or if ever have any questions!
