I'm a little nervous to spend this much money even though I think the numbers make sense.

My apologies to the 30% that do work and earn their check so the other 70% can spend most of their time goofing off and screwing up the works.

You don't want to make them think they really need to start sniffing around because once they spend enough time and money, then they HAVE to find something.

Contact those folks and add them to your buyers list.I always test market on craigslist a new market before I spend time or money.

Don't spend any money any of these classes until you've done some significant investigation on your own.

Yea, 8% of rents towards management fees + $200 condo fee.The nice thing about the condo fee is that I'm on the board with the other condo unit owner so I get a lot of say into where we spend the money.

Just want to make sure you think about everything that is involved with owning rental property and not to over project your profits and then over extend yourself (if you are able to get the loan).

Listen to Scott: let them look and they'll find they've already got an established area and taking the rental increase is worth not moving, renting storage, and spending resources searching for another location.

THE challenge is there are so few duplex's in the locations I want that I spend a ton of time looking and not buying.
