If I move out to the West Coast I'm aiming for Seattle, we'll see where my day job takes me, but would likely be looking to house-hack there, and I know the market is on fire there right now!

You might be saving the money between a rental unit and a home purchase debt service.   

My buildium software makes it easy for me to charge water bills so I don't need a billing company.I did not want to use a submetering company with provided equipment that charges a each tenant a surcharge depending on the level of service that they provide.

How about the cost to maintain an LLC if you have one, accounting costs, or bank service charges? 

If so, I'm curious if you are pleased with the services they have provided as your property managers, and if you are "surviving" with the low returns that their turn-key solution offers. 

Starting out is a lot harder because of debt service ratios/etc.

Hi All, I am working with a client who would like to engage the services of an interior designer to help define and design a basement finish project in Atlanta. 

I want to thank you for all of the service and support you've provided me/us during our time together.

If they have no stance against it, go for it; you'll be able to provide a high level of service to that place being just up the road.

If you then take the dealer to court the judge is going dismiss because you contracted for an illegal service.
