Make sure to check out the New Hampshire housing program offering $10,000 in downpayment assistance, can even be used for repeat buyers depending on location.

Attached is how I would quote this one from the financing side, depending on the location of the property and credit score.

The basis for each replacement property would be proportionate to the percentage of the total replacement value that property represented, so if they were all equal in purchase price, their basis would all be equal.Depreciation for the replacement properties can be handled in a couple of ways depending on what is most beneficial for your specific circumstances.

-Depending on the property you might need lawn care, exterminator and other misc stuff that is easy to forget about -Consumables: TP, PT, bar soap, shampoo/conditioner, laundry pods, garbage bags, coffee, coffee mixers etc add up. 

We do limit the number of pets however to 2 or sometimes 3 depending on what it is and size of pet

Success in this space (any space) depends on your ability to find MOTIVATED sellers.I said motivated sellers, I didn't say "people".It starts there.So to 100% non-opinionated prove to you that what you are saying is wrong, consider this.How many mailers calls or texts do you need to send to the methods you described to find leads, TO close a deal?

@Anthony JacksonIt depends on how you intend to use the money. 

Fort Bragg/Liberty isn't going to be growing smaller any time soon - I'd think it all depends on which category comes along as a 'deal' first.

If you can't self manage (which everyone thinks is easy - but it's a LOT of work so depends on your available time to devote to answering basic questions over and over, calling 3 cleaners to replace the one that called out for the 5th time in season, calling an A/C company because your guest turned the thermostat down to 65 in 100 degree weather, etc.) then either go with iTrip if they have a strong franchise in your market or a mid-size local company with a good reputation.

Now, facing lease renewals, I discovered two tenants has a history of evictions from my Internet research.
