I make sure whatever property I am looking at will do well based on seasonality.

That will make all the difference.

Insurance company is making me get a UL certified central fire alarm system for this 4 unit I bought in PA. 

I think a lot of times you get what you give - I've been a part of a couple during times where I really just wasn't spending time interacting, making posts, doing the assigned tasks, attending all the calls, etc.

new to this and just looking for some advice guess i really i don't no where to start so any advice is appreciated bought my first house in may and thing seem to be going well so far its more of a boarding house / house hacking roommate situation with people i know for the moment plan on doing some things to up the equity but am limited on funds i know the neighbors house just sold for a bit more then i paid for mine so that's a plus and mine is nicer and in better shape i have almost no debt for the most part except the current mortgage on said house don't make much from my day job less then 3k a month after taxes and have good credit. i guess i just really need to know where to start should i be starting a LLC or something similar?

If you can't make it to BPCON24, we will livestream the conversation.

@David Jackson - I have a four-unit in the Dells and have looked into STR in the past but it was such a hurdle that it didn't make much sense for me.

I have $200k cash to deploy in the process, but would prefer to use that for a down payment on a home in the place where we’re moving (similar VHCOL area.)

It wouldn't hurt if you wanted to do that now as they could provide good information as you move forward and make decisions.Benefits: building a relationship, shopping firms to get the best fit, knowledge regarding big financial decision before they occur, knowing if  you're making any major mistakes, determining if your plans will actually help you tax wise SummaryIt might be too early but only something good can come out of a meeting with a knowledgable tax professional earlier rather than later.

Or is it still possible to make decent cash flow?
