Haverhill is another interesting area with reasonable home prices and a lot of municipal developments in the works (also the commuter rail and easy access to major highways).

Theres not really a good reason to go out and find buyers if you dont have a deal.

I’m not sure if this is for you, but...If you’re serious about leveling up your real estate game in 2024, there’s no reason not to try this.

However, our goal is to help 100k investors obtain financial freedom - hence the reasons why we provide many videos, podcasts, programs, and services to help with this journey.Unfortunately, we cannot promise that every deal we help you get under contract will close.

This is the heart of the reason housing isn't mroe affordable, that landlords bear these types of costs every day.You could probably find cheaper labor, especially to haul away the junk, but not easily as an out of state investor. 

I’m making every effort to comply with landlord responsibilities and avoid giving the tenant any reason to sue me.

Reason being, I hired a property management company (just now) and they're wonderful, they start officially in a couple days. 

You're not in the position to be a cash buyer...as a former wealth manager, it's simply not a good play for you for many of the reasons stated above and more.  

Bottom line is buy as big as you can reasonably buy once you are out of small multifamily. 

If (**redacting name of PM co**) Contracting would like to share the actual cost of repairs I'd be open to looking at those numbers as a reasonable cost.
