If that employee found 1 per week they’d probably be ahead. 

I’m working with an investor “friendly” agent that I found through BP, but perhaps it would benefit me to look for an agent who is not an investor or doesn’t have many investor clients who rank ahead of me.

Go ahead and write up the lease with the 5/15 move in.  

So I went ahead and ordered spectrum internet with the thought of providing the same WIFI access for the two units plus the security system for the two units.

As a high school teacher, I can attest that most of my colleagues don't agree that it takes borrowing to get ahead. 

My assumption to the second question is you are renting to Section 8 in an area where Section 8 doesn't pay the entire amount and you are relying on the tenants to pay the rest...which they are not, thus the negative CF.My third question is based on my assumptions:3 - Why would you rent to section 8 if you know ahead of time (and you should) that S8 won't pay your full amount? 

@RIley McDowell it’s looks like you have a bright future ahead of you!

Would it be a smart investment to go ahead and buy a duplex in a more undesirable area at the moment and fix it up. i know rent is much lower in those areas as well. seems to be more class c areas. i Am working with an amazing realtor but still wanted to get on here and hear other peoples feedback or advice.

Should I go ahead and move forward with the renovation?

I have already committed to going to a Padres vs Cubs baseball game.I am leery of making commitments as I do not know what my schedule will be this far ahead of time.
