I love crushing numbers and if you are interested in learning about Data Science or Machine Learning (or brainstorm how to use them for real-state investment) let me know!!

$20k seems excessive, unless that includes the new machines and utility upgrades.Good quality commercial machines (similar to a laundromat) should run somewhere in the $1.3-2k each depending on size and features - they usually have a 5 year warranty and are easily owner-serviced.  

As you might imagine, the response rate was quite low for mailed surveys, and the initiative was costly.Telephone surveys were also once very common, but people today let their answering machines take calls or they have caller ID, which enables them to ignore calls they do not want to receive.

At the present time I need to participate virtually.

There is a wealth of knowledge here and virtually anything you can think of has already been addressed and discussed.Good luck and congrats on deciding to start your investing journey!

But also continue to virtually attend whatever meet-ups you were.

Have gained a lot from the virtual events this fall and am hopeful for post-holiday events to continue the real estate journey in 2021. 

The house pulls in $430 per room, will be locked in with cosignment from parents (student rentals) with rent on ACH/autopay schedule.The home is going to be rented from June 1st - May 1st, and there will be virtually no vacancies (this will be club on campus house, which I have personal connections to)The question is this: We have the ability to utilize a VA loan and purchase the house, with this option the mortgage is roughly $1100 monthly, we will be pulling in $3000 roughly in revenue, so between mortgage, insurance, and taxes the costs is $1100, with other expenses applied it will be roughly $800-900 positive cash flow monthly. 

In the end, if you have the space for it then you know that the crews are going to have to hand-do a lot of things that would typically be machine aided, which will add to the bottom line, but perhaps not enough to bust the concept.One thing to be mindful of here is parking. 

There is a virtual meetup this Saturday.
