hi my name is Mark I have listened to some bigger pockets podcasts  on you tube and they've been very informational I am a buy and hold investor with only three properties and I would like to get in the some more and possibly flip some houses to raise money to put towards more buy-and-hold investments if the market will allow thanks for letting me be a part of this.

I'm sure most of you have already heard about the FED's raising the interest rates this past week. 

I would also check to see if your state has any minimum maintenance intervals in addition to to the required annual fire service fire and load/no load testing requirements.

The biggest profit center for these sober houses isn't the real estate rental, but the crazy high drug testing fees they could charge, up to $400/test, and were testing every other day.

Make sure that depreciation and mortgage interest payments match that or maybe exceed it a little as mortgage interest should degree over time and hopefully rents will raise over time.  

With the end goal of using the capital raised from said flips to land in a house hacking multi-family scenario before end of 2016.Does anybody know a good investor friendly local bank in Utah???

Cable, phones, food...etc.We were fortunate and made some good money on the two other houses we had when we sold two years ago (houses we had before we met and got married) we wanted a nicer house in a great location to raise our family and found the place that fit and got a great deal on a lot where the owner had to sell.
