I have barely even used podio.

Before I throw in my two cents I want to recap my favorite take aways up to this point:@Matthew Olszak said paying the rent early isn't a plus; paying rent on time is a bare minimum of the lease.

I can barely afford 5% down on a mid-grade home and have been feeling discouraged.

In this case, due to overall lack of parking (2 spaces for 4 units) I had originally planned doing only bare minimum upgrades and keeping this geared towards lower-income housing as I knew I'd only be attracting tenants that didn't have vehicles.

In 2008, I had to take a tenant at a $1,850 rental rate, which was all the market would bare. 

It does not cashflow; our tenants have paid down the mortgage over the past 11 years and even now, we would barely break even if we sold.

Myself an @Linda B. are looking for recommendations for a property manager in John Day, OR.  

@Jason DiClementeIn Washington it isn't JUST being RE Agent.. you can still get in trouble for "equity skimming" for not giving the seller in pre-foreclosure full market value or at bare minimum in writing telling them what they "could" get. 

I figure if I can estimate a "bare minimum" estimate and it's higher than I need, I'll be golden

About 2 years ago I drove by this horribly ugly blue house that I could barely see from the road.
