It's very economical than newspaper or electric media and more personnel and direct.

I've been an investor in SFR exclusively, but this past summer, tried to enter the multi dwelling unit market.  

"Gross rent $180,000, NOI is $128,000"If accurate and no exclusions, that's an expense ratio of 28% and that's good.HOWEVER, Price / GSI = 2,800,000 / 180,000 = 15 (the GRM)   Someone is dreaming on the price.  

when a house is listed in the local newspaper for auction how could I find out how much is the opening bid ?

I also found that these 3 areas are closely related and are not mutually exclusive.

Therefore, investors must have a net worth of $1M or more exclusive of their home or meet the income requirement of $200k/year for the last 2 years with the reasonable expectation of the same in the current tax year for an individual or $300k/year for a married couple.

Today is the last day of the exclusive listing period for owner occupants.  

You would also be giving up a big tax advantage, the capital gains exclusion on your personal residence.

As far as the break-in, the tenant has "exclusive right of use" and because of that, she is the victim.
