AtlantaREIA is more of a mixed bag and seems to be focused on revenue generation.

Looking forward to learning more and sharing some of my insights.I currently have one investment property, condo, generating $1,700/month with a mortgage/HOA around $1,000.

Since it was your initial plan I am assuming it is within reasonable driving distance to work.

I had the luxury of having another person figure it out initially and then show me.

You also consolidate maintenance and repairs, bill paying, payroll etc.One other advantage is an ability to generate "active" income via the PM company and create retirement plans, benefits, SS credits etc.

Initially I was thinking FHA was the way to go, but after getting to know my market a little better, I am reconsidering, and thinking it may be better for the long run to go with a Conventional 5% down loan.

My goal would be to build a portfolio of homes that will generate monthly cash flow.

Does anyone have landlord-initiated ACH?  

@Chris M.The only way to reduce your "tax hit" is to either make less money or somehow generate deductions.
