I finished the year strong, but the lack of supply has been EXTREMELY frustrating to me and my clients.

Thanks for reading and supplying feedback if you do.

The speed of finding a tenant depends on how desirable the unit is for the area, with regard to the area supply of such a spiffy listing;  a week or 2 to do select tenants and gather deposit.  

I wish more companies would be smart enough to supply their new hires with this book!

Minor remodel for house B ($5k supplies did the work ourselves) and 20% downpayment.

Usually one partner supplies the down payment only and the other manages the property in a 50/50 partnership.

I typically just leave the Coax cables with end terminals inside the enclosure (the cable guys always use a different splitter than I supply) and I punch down the Cat 5 on a distribution panel, so the tenant can use a router of their choosing.  

Summer rental can be affected due to the university schedule but long term properties are in short supply as over 1000 people move to Austin every week. 

Hi Robert,I am doing flips over in Dracut.Like to know where you are buying your supplies. 

To accomplish both Landlord and Home Ownership experience best route today is FHA (Purchase 1-4 Units) with as low as 3.5% down with an allowance of 6% seller assist toward closing costs and also the allowance of 85% of the collected rents to be used toward your global debt to income on purchase power.Let me know if you have any questions.Regards,Joe Scorese
