-Kody,I'm currently assessing the market landscape to see what approach most appeals to me and aligns with my goals, but at the moment I would say that multifamilies, sfrs (later on) and definitely flipping seem of most interest to me.

Jay Hassey , if you are looking for a well established landscaper for quotes or design/ideas contact me.

     Most of the folks out this way file their taxes with a profession as "landscaper" with the IRS, for purposes of qualifying for a loan, when they grow weed.  

But you're gonna have to pay for landscaping, college kids aren't cutting the grass.

That should give you pause.On the expenses, water is not 4x a SFR for a four plex - more like probably 2-2.5x because there's generally less landscaping per resident and the occupants per dwelling unit is generally less in an apt.And, your trash is way low.

.), however, a lot of the other information should be fairly east to obtain like the real estate taxes, insurance (call several brokers), landscaping/snow removal (call local investors to find out who they use).Your best bet is finding someone local to your market and speaking to them what will be a good deal. 

Banks and brokerages were paid up front for creating loans while being temporarily insulated from the aftermath of failed loans.The expansion of mortgage products that popularized interest-only loans, only-adjustable rate mortgages, interest-only adjustable rate mortgages, even negative -amortizing “option arm” mortgages that allowed borrowers to actually increase their loan balances, rather than paying their mortgages down.Second-lien purchase mortgages that allowed borrowers to escape both mortgage insurance and a down payment.The loosening of credit standards that allowed borrowers with poor credit, few assets, and/or no verified income to buy homes they would not be able to sustain.Public policy and presidential speeches which created a demand for home ownership even among those who would not ordinarily qualify for mortgages.

As a DC transplant, that gives me much needed perspective on the RE landscape here.

Usually you look for bad landscaping/overgrown lawn, notices on door, ect.

There are still a lot of problems, but Somersworth compactness and closeness to Week's Crossing and the Spaulding I think make it the next logical choice for expansion from Dover.
