I am the sole provider for our home. 

Only thing I will add is if you rent by the room, you also have to factor in landscaping costs (mowing the grass) and ideally cleaning of common areas (eg weekly cleaning service).  

Vacancy control prohibits rental housing providers from adjusting rents to market rates when a tenant moves out.

Don't mean to be a debby downer, but want to provide honest feedback.

I had leased to one of the actors who created a service offering especially for movie industry folks and sub leased to the crews working in movie industry.

An agent would lose a couple grand servicing the property at that rate.

Your protection is language in your purchase contract requiring the deed provide you marketable title in fee simple and a professional title search and title insurance to cover you.

One of the stipulations for the sale was to provide effort to remove 2 problem tenants in the building.

Hey @Brooke Peterson  Thank you for your service! 

I found myself attending in-person networking almost weekly prior to the pandemic, but we live in a different world, and the digital shift has made it harder.Currently looking for personal investment deals in the area, and also passionate about connecting other local investors with trusted service providers.
