If you don't have employees, that saves you money, but then you are basically living in the coffee shop.I don't know how much you need, but in my opinion, $15,000 isn't nearly enough.I know if I were representing the landlord, I'd want to see that you had a lot more that set aside, unless I was a desperate landlord who was looking for any tenants I could get.I actually have a client with a coffee shop and it's a tough business.I'm not trying to discourage you, I just want you to go in with your eyes wide open.

Actually go to HomeAway.com and look at them.

Happy to share some tips and tricks on how to find more properties that actually cash flow!

@Robert Morrissey, This is an odd question, and I am not sure at what you're actually trying to get at.

I am about o go see a property that is going to potentially be my first rental property and I was going to use the approach of portraying myself as a property manager rather than the actual owner/buyer of the property and was wondering if when i am seeing the property if i come into contact with any tenants not only what questions i should ask them but also how i should introduce myself.

I actually havent considered this.

Actually added a second property down the street to maximize our property management fees.

Do you have to claim the excess cash as a profit and pay taxes on it even though it’s actually a loan from your cash out refinance? 

Look ...The tree will never become reality if you don’t plant the seed .

I actually just started reading that myself.
