House hacking it for a year or so, could allow you to build up extra funds for a future down payment, furnishings, and other costs. 

Black cabinet hardware and changing to a black sink to match the other appliances would look nice though and wouldn't cost much

The biggest concern they are having is over dramatically increasing costs...not so much with rate, but with items like taxes and insurance.

I currently have 5 mortgages but have not been great at keeping track of the details such as costs associated with each individual property.

But you will increase costs in regards to insurance or lending..You still risk losing the property to any liability that happens at the property or in your personal life.

While some feel they have become too commercialized, others still find them useful for learning.The property listings and tools like calculators and rent estimators that can aid in analyzing potential deals.The local meetup groups that allow investors to network and connect in their area.Overall, BiggerPockets is seen as a good free resource for beginner real estate investors to learn the basics, though the quality and trustworthiness of the content is debated, especially after the company was sold.

Hi,I have a turnover for a property in Memphis TN, and there's a bit of extra work that needs to be done in addition to standard wear and tear, some bedroom doors need to be replaced, blinds, patching, painting, some floor tiles etc....I got an estimate, and I know everything is costing more these days but it feels a bit aggressive. 

I’m in Florida, but know enough to tell you that California is cost prohibitive, so yes it is a tough market.  

Has anyone on here done something similar and remember the cost or have an idea of what pricing should be (ballpark)?
