Other than that, you still need to include insurance (interior coverage), power/water, property tax, mortagage. 

Most states include things like abandoning a job, requiring certain information on contracts like license numbers, estimated time to start and complete, description of the job, etc.

Because your principle and interest payment is probably hovering around $2,800/month, not including property taxes and insurance, maintenance and any allowance for capex.But forgetting about cashflow, your return, even if had NO expenses or payments of any kind would be around 3.6% based on a valuation of $1.3m.  

Along with a credit report, I have read that other documents for a rental application should be included.

So, I'm thinking that I can get this property for 57K to 60K and fit 4 people including myself in there.

I read a few books including Brandon's book "Rental Properties Investing" and on paper looks doable.

If you want to manage it yourself, get a merchant account set up so you can take credit cards and plan on spending the $800/yr on HomeAway or VRBO to be included in searches.

This is a project that requires a city permit FYI, but if you are installing windows on a house you live in, you can pull the permit yourself.My husband and I replaced all the windows on the house we live in now - it was one of our first renovation projects.If you hire a contractor usually they will want to purchase the windows themselves, and that cost is included their quotes along with the labor cost for installation.

I have been quietly reading and absorbing information from bigger pockets for over a year ( including reading many of Brandon Turner 's books and webinars) and figured it was time to introduce myself.
