They got 1 quote that totaled $3,500 for the job.

Hey Mark, if you had other work prior to your recent job, then just find a common thread between the two jobs (ex. they both are computer related, finance related, whatever).

Investing in a MSA with a small population IS significantly more risky than investing one with a large growing population and job growth. 

Hi, @Zachary Robertson, great job on not having an issue funding your investment -- that's awesome!

We didn't know what we were getting into at the time, and now find ourselves having to complete a Management Improvement and Operating (MIO) Plan..

Our area apartments rent out for $500 and are usually 1 bedroom and other SF rental homes are in the $500-$750 depending on condition.The chamber of commerce, utilities office, and city hall all allowed us to put up a flyer and that is where the majority of our leads came from as it was people moving to town for jobs that weren't ready to buy as our potential renters.

My husband and I work good W2 jobs in construction (me in project management, he is a carpenter). 

Job growth in rural areas will likely remain pretty stagnant over the foreseeable future.

I feel like for a software that I have to pay more that does a better job, it would be completely worth it.

I will try Mississippi, have not personally done deals there but a client of mine, has purchase 7 homes in Middle of the state, around Laurensville( I think is the name please correct me ), job in the area are not great, so he has Section 8 tenants. so it works for him and cash flows and vacancies are not that bad since is a older crowd.
