Thanks in advance so much for any tips, thoughts, etc you can offer. 

Does anybody have tips on what to look out for?

Any tips/contacts/money people in NYC that can help me on my way.

@Ouman You if she rents it and then does a 1031 exchange the replacement property will also have to be an investment property.

I am really wanting to up the flow of leads for myself but I just don't know quite how to because it seems impossible to at least direct mail market like in the US.Any info, tips and tricks, and guidance would be greatly appreciated!

As an example, if you have to replace a fridge, even a more economical one around $600, that would eat up a whole year of maintenance.

My ultimate goal would be to replace my W-2 income so I can pastor full time and to also prepare for retirement from the ministry so I won’t be limited financially from helping other churches, missions, etc.I have an interest in a couple areas of real estate.

Any tips on what else should be added?

So, after replacing some carpet, painting the whole place, and some other minor improvents, here's where I'm at.Expenses $9600 (including everything but mortgage)Income $17300Expenses=55% of gross rentsDuplex 2I've owned for 8 years, and it was 3 years old at the time of purchase and needed nothing but a little touch up painting at the time.Expenses $31200 (including everything but mortgage)Income $104200Expenses=30% of gross rentsTotal expenses between the two = 34% I do expect this number to go up a as the property that is now 11 years old starts to need more repairs.

Thanks for the tip!
