Zillow shows that number, but I the very middle number is about 1200$ (it goes up and down, not a steady line).

Hello Brant, im also a newbie on the east end of the valley.

Some tenants could care less about them and leave you in the middle of the night/not pay, etc... at which point you could spend more money to chase them down and get a judgement against them than it would take to clean it out and rerent it.

i am two suburbs east of you. ask questions if you need to.welcome.

My 3 investment houses are east of Dallas so I am looking in that area too with the same methods.

In middling communities you can get into a decent starter home.

They drag the landlord out over a few months and then in the middle of the night they are gone owing a couple of months rent and some damages.

I'd LOVE to hook up with an East Bay wholesaler.

In this range you should be able to find a duplex maybe with an illegal but rentable basement apt in Ozone Park, East Elmhurst, Flushing, Queens Village, Cambria Heights, Rosedale, maybe Jackson Heights and College Point.

I am in the East Valley of Phoenix, Arizona
