Our experience with the 12 unit has been really positive we have boosted net income from 40k to 65+ and built up more than adequate reserves.

My income increased gradually over the years, and this year will also show some increase (not dramatically).

Even dropping it $100 might dramatically increase your applicant pool.

Also the platforms boost new properties to increase their visibility on the site.  

Almost always, their behavior never gets better after the the application process; this is when they are presumably showing you their best.Using this system has dramatically reduced any wasted time I used to endure as part of the showing process as well as giving me empirical data about their timeliness/responsiveness/respect for others' time.Good luck!

if it's an A or B area, it's a lot more likely you can fix these problems...if it's C (or especially D) or lower, it's a lot less likely you can fix the problems (unless the neighborhood improves dramatically).One other consideration:Do you have prior experience managing OOS PMs and managing a property? 

Most dramatic, as a plumber was working in the basement correcting the furnace vent, the brick underside of the fireplace hearth came crashing down.

The decision to move to a market instead of trying to invest from a distance is.1 This will be my first deal.2 It will be easier to network and learn the market by living in it. 3 I believe it will greatly boost my ability to grow my portfolio and help me get over the fear of my first few deals by seeing the properties, neighborhoods and meeting face to face with the people I am working with (agents, contractors, etc.).I am looking to invest this fall in a duplex, triplex or quadplex with the help of a FHA loan and house hacking. 

And those cycles are much bigger and more dramatic than what we see out here.
