House hacking with an FHA loan is a great way to minimize living costs while building equity, or you could invest in an out-of-state rental for steady cash flow.

The CF is only playing catchup to the cost to you of the property. 

These platforms typically have billing policies where you pay a per unit fee per month to the software and you get regular updates and support each month.There are a number of low-cost platforms available that are able to offer you a lower price by passing along some of the costs to your tenants (payment processing fees, applications, tenant screening, etc).

Green for low and red for high property values.

I usually only have about 2k for closing costs out of pocket.

Hey everyone, a new development in the area where I invest, is offering a 5.99% interest rate (conventional loan) and 2% of purchase price in closing costs.

Rising maintenance costs, turnover, Taxes, and other expenses will also contribute to this.  

However, i want to address placing a tenant.My market has a low vacancy rate.  

As a NY'er what was important to me was 1. cost of market entry 2. price to rent ratio 3.
