I'm very new to the site and jumping into the landlord business with a buy and hold rental my wife and I are scheduled to close on this month.

I bought a SFH last year (in the Port Norfolk neighborhood for those familiar with the Hampton roads area) and I'm renting out two of the rooms and getting my feet wet with landlording.

Where we are located, the city requires the water/sewer bill to be in the landlord's name, so the students pay the landlord the rent, water, sewer and trash and then the students pay the electric, gas and cable/internet directly to the utility company.  

Hello,I have been doing the landlord routine for the last 6 years.

Large land deals like that are usually more about timing than anything else.

I've also done a lot of cold calling, which is how I landed my recent property in Southie.

He got too busy building a house on his own land and is now wanting to sell it. 

I am looking for a good deal on multi-family properties in Chicago land area.

My speciality is commercial real estate (Retail, Land, and MF)in the Little Havana area of Miami-Dade County.

It is also measured by a landlords perceived responsibility to our industry.
