(Pictures above are of the unit with Tenant B - referenced below - caused issues about)Hi all! 

There is a big picture - we all strive for it - but there are daily wins - and we need to celebrate those. 

Will fill out my profile once my wife helps me take a suitable picture. 

I therefore had to rush to the property after work and only had less than 90 minutes of daylight in which to film and take pictures.

Typically 1% properties will cash flow, but in markets like CA and FL and other places where property taxes can be very high and insurance or whatever....1% won't give you an accurate picture.

I liked the instructor, but it did feel like just going through the motions to get through the book.When I got my brokers license I went with the Adler Toro school in Union City.

Start looking at properties available now on Zillow or the MLS if you have access, & try to picture it as a VR, location, amenities, room enough for a family or 2?  

I don't have a clear picture after the first two years about when a property is considered for income vs. expenses- it might depend on whether it is underwritten by Freddie or Fannie- but the new property may have to be "seasoned" for another 2 years before it helps your DTI or it may count to qualify for the loan you are trying to obtain.  

We also take 150-200 pictures of the property and a very extensive video inside and out prior to the tenant moving in.

Thanks guys, I saw some pictures of other rentals at Zillow and they look good.
