I spent the last year trying to buy more single family properties in Phoenix.

I have spent 8 months to a year learning about them and I wanted to know if new/future regulations will be a problem and if they are still lucrative options in today’s market. 

I spent over a year researching deals before I was able to pull the trigger on this one.

It may be helpful to determine a "buy box" between you and the investor to ensure both of your needs/goals are meant.

Stop looking when you find it.90% of the time a REI spends each day doing anything REI related, should be spent on Market Analysis.

Another question...If I do a value add like a rental box truck will that be factored into my property evaluation?

When it comes to debt I always look at the potential returns, if the cost of the interest is low enough 3-4% and you can invest the extra money you would use towards paying down the debt for 5% plus then the money is better spent over the long run on the investment.

Purchase price $1.2Loan of $900k @ 2.85%Money spent renovating and upgrading to date $40K.

Be prepared to have a large breaker box OR gas hookup.

My neighbors couldn't believe what we spent on that home.
