BP,My name is Corey Donahue and I've been in the single family REI space for about 15 years.

Are you looking at single family or multi family?

We have been purchasing single family homes in cash around Denver and Colorado Springs and have kept a steady pace of about 15-20 deals per month.  

Hi @Ken Virzi,I advise anyone that buys single family to make sure they have 6 months in reserves for their family AND $10,000.00 in reserves for each single family for when Murphy's law raises its ugly head. 

Looking to invest in real estate starting with single family with the goal of eventually have long multi family.

Currently searching for a Single Family Home located in the Newport News, VA area.

Florida only has two possibilities, namely single or transactional. 

In case it is a single member the taxes are done on your personal return.If you want a more professional treatment I suggest you contact Borders and Borders real Estate Attorneys.

When I did the math on the charges, he was charging me $7/bulb assuming he changed EVERY light bulb in the house....every single one.... so you can figure what I was expected to pay for the 2-3 he probably replaced....Took him to court...judge laughed....I got ALL my $$ back.....This is a PM issue.... those charges are out of line

Inventory is low and there will always be a strong demand for cheaper housing if ever you decide you would rather not hold your property anymore.The risks are 1) They crash / correct harder than single family homes in a housing market crash.
