For example, there are 500k-600k 2000sqt+ duplex that has monthly cost around $4000 ~ 4500 without management but the typical rent in that area for those units is under $2000.

I have a management company that is local for day-day management.

I currently just have a 2-door honda that I will use for business travel/managing the rental.

Our company hosts a monthly meetup the first Thursday of every month.

Maybe find out where the property manager is and visit in person.

For example, the unemployment rate, relatively low, is 6.5% versus MA's 3.5%It's been a long time since I was more familiar with Springfield, so I'm not sure about the impact of the casino.In general, similar to other working class cities like Fitchburg, in Springfield I'd imagine you'd fine the following conditions:- Attractive Cap rates- Medium vacancy- You're paying a realtor or property management company to find tenants (in higher end cities the tenants pay the realtor fee)- Section 8 tenants -- could be a negative or positive, depending on your view.

I was wondering if anyone here has managed to do a new construction BRRRR in the more expensive states.

I'm rereading Brandon's book on Managing rental properties and he mentions that you need to give everyone an opportunity to apply, even if they don't meet the minimum criteria you have set.

Our building is fully occupied and none of the current tenants want to be the onsite manager. 

I just started a real estate company.
