Similarly, investing in a random sub-market where properties sell for an 8 Cap instead of a major market where properties trade at a 5 Cap doesn't mean your total return over 10 years will be better if the 8 Cap is in a market with flat or negative rents and the 5 Cap is in a market with 3-5% annual rent growth. 

@George BlowerSo Federal withholding is 20% flat? 

@Kris H.Flips can work in flat markets if you find the right neighbourhoods that are changing over.

For the same reason, @Shivam Patel it is more reason I am avoiding the FHA/PMI double-trouble, especially considering @Mark F. was having no luck getting his offers even considered with an FHA.All this combined with the fact that these townships in general appreciated something like 20% since a year ago, I am reconsidering altogether if it is better to look in NYC area as people flee or get even more exotic and look around Upstate NY, Connecticut, or Pennsylvania (Philly?).

Sewer $55 a quarter per unit, + store water fee which varies—-I add $15 a unit per quarter to be safe( that’s usually overkill) + about another $100 flat fee for the year for Wilkes Barre on top of that.3.

Hi Everyone,Apologies for the back to back posts, but my wife and I are also looking for brick and HVAC recs for some help on our 2-flat.

If it's a straight investment property you can't do FHA so that's why I always recommend looking for a 2 flat house hack. 

You’d have to decide for yourself if you want to manage the property remotely yourself (totally doable, but a bit more work) and make a higher return OR if you want to outsource the management altogether to a 3rd party and not have that hassle (you’d typically pay as much as 25%, which would likely eat up most of the profit). - Lastly, as far as the actual property goes, what I usually recommend is to setup an alert on Zillow or Redfin for the type of property you’re looking for and just monitor new listings as they come in.

They flat out refused my STR income.
