Expansion?

i've had a really difficult time grasping why condos are a bad option for buy-and-hold investments. that's the feeling i've been getting from the forums - and even the Rental Calculator; it doesn't have an option for Condos... maybe i'm being too literal.for example, if i buy a multifamily, i have to maintain the entire building and landscaping around it. if i choose to outsource the maintenance, i pay the premium for that.if i buy a SFH, same deal as above.if i buy a condo, i pay an HOA which, of course takes a bite out of my bottom line as well. i've read that condo associatons can be a mess and special assessments could happen - but of course i would do my own due diligence to research this ahead of time. nobody can always predict all possible issues.however, the same can happen with a MF or SFH... a roof can go bad. siding. windows... etc. - capital expenditures happen.so... how is this different than these potential issues with a condo?

You may have to replace flooring, some chewed trim, landscape cleanup and maybe some other wall or scratching issues. 

looling to keep as profit bearing rental for many years to come with expansion down the line.

rehab inside and and added some landscaping Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

With BSSM expansion, and the location being central to all the recreation, etc., in the north state, along with lack of locations for larger groups, I think it would be a good one. 

Verify utility bills, verify rent rolls via leases, verify next year's property taxes, use a real and current quote for property mgmt, landscaping, etc.

So even on the high side you have 400 to cover insurance, property maintenance, repairs, cap-ex, contractual services like snow and landscaping, taxes, etc.

Thanks @todd dexheimer , I have been looking into it more, and I was curious how much expanse is pushing out to the east/northeast?

I do not mean have them do anything other than make sure landscaper is cutting the grass, maybe show vacant units etc?
