Since my average rent is $650, that means I have an average of $1950 for repairs or vacancies per property.As you can imagine, that isn't very much for major repairs but I also have a strong network to help keep my costs low.

When looking at other states  I've been trying to get an idea of the population and growth as  I'm afraid of a low demand and the vacancy's that i imagine would come along.

I can't imagine that someone with a 5000+ sq. ft wouldn't want an entry to separate things.Different strokes.

This would probably be the right time to take big appreciation gains if that's your thing.If you got a 100k house for 20-30k in 2012 and are renting it for 1200 now then I can't imagine why you would give that kind of cash flow up.  

We had it as a default a while ago and the complaints just poured in . . . we put the onus on the user now.While I'd rather have it the other way, it clearly wasn't working out.

I imagine that it would remove the paint without damaging the brick.

I'd imagine it's easier to get a license in another state when you've done the work in another first (kind of loosely like a driving license).

My grandparents have been investing in La Jolla, Pacific Beach and Mission Beach in SD since the 70's when properties were around $50K and I imagine people were also saying how those markets were overpriced back then!

It was like pouring gasoline straight from the distillation column on the small fire I had to start this new venture.

I can only imagine how I would have done if I was applying that to Real Estate even a few years younger.
