I worked for a one the top mortgage lenders in the nation and left to pursue a living in real estate investing for passive income and freedom.

If you belong to a real estate group where these people are then they might give you a ball park figure for free. 

I flew up to Reno once.. and had down time and lost all my money at the casino  ... and did not have cash to get my car out of the park and fly.. ( pre credit card days )  LOL.

I'd start with attending anything the National Association of Residential Property Managers is conducting.  

Not worth the nonsense dealing with a larger national Bank for these types of properties.

I think by about this time next year we'll start to see some fundamental changes in the way major markets function nationally.  

8 percent for vacancy(national average) unless you know the actual vacancy rate for your area (which you should definitely learn), 10 percent for maintenance and 10 percent for capital expenditures.

HML rates are a little higher in our region than they are nationally.

I represented the buyer on a duplex in Lemeirt Park at $760k.  

I help my business partner run his property management company, ERS Management, in town, and we are actively managing about 750 units for approximately 75 local, national, and international investors and are rapidly expanding.I always love to chew real estate and help people find investments that can benefit both parties.
