To find competitive pricing, look into the rental prices of nearby multifamily properties that are comparable to yours.Take into account all of the running costs, such as insurance, maintenance, taxes on the property, utilities (if not individually metered), and, if necessary, property management fees.Take into account the principle and interest payments associated with your mortgage.

I'm interested in investing in Idaho, but I have zero experience with Idaho taxes (or state income tax at all for that matter).Questions:I've heard that property taxes in Idaho are higher for out of state owners vs. residents (i.e. a house could cost $2K in annual taxes for a resident, but may be $3K for an out-of-state owner).
