Realize that would be based on your efforts, versus the current sellers, but you would be willing to pay above market if you plan to make a lot more by doing the value add.I prefer to pay below market, but if the zoning is hard to find, if the potential value add is great, or the finance deal is wonderful, then I would pay above market. 

So, if one aims to replace current income of $90k-$120K/year one may start with $2200-$2500/mo marketing campaign.

Hi everyone - I currently have an investment property with a 150K+ mortgage of 7% interest.

In my market currently the list price is pretty close to what they’re going to sell for.

The home appraised last year for 2.1m, currently on the market for 1.98.

@Alex NARecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

I am a first time investor, about to rent out my current home (3BR/2bath) as I move into a new one (so a tad nervous!).

Quote from @Renee Jones: I am doing a job in Shaker Heights OH for which I currently have 150% of budget in escrow with the town housing dpt.I can only get the funds released once violations are rectified.

@Tim AlbrightCouple of other things to add to what others have told you - I'm not sure of your net worth currently, or what you expect it to grow to over the coming years. 

I am currently a healthcare provider and hoping to use RE and other investments to create more passive income and perhaps retire early to spend more time with family and travel.
