-Check how many 'rental' allowed in the HOA, this is extremely important, you don't want to buy condo where rental is not permitted- The condo appreciation and cash flow are really dependent on the school and neighborhood class/city/state wide.- If it's on class A and A school rating, the appreciation for that condo could be higher than even SFR.

That is what I do and it works extremely well. 

These two items can result in extremely poor returns if the purchase happens to coincide with a period of modest or worse appreciation.  

Hello everyone,I am extremely grateful to have found this great platform and a community like you all:)I am new to real estate and rental property investing, and I am starting to run the numbers on listings to train myself to see if there is Cashflow. 

Right now I am based in Aberdeen, WA and am extremely motivated to purchase my first property, specifically a multi-family.

This price point is extremely challenging to say the least.

I went in extremely leveraged with effectively zero out of pocket.

I’m a fast learner and and extremely hard working; and I will make goals that help my employer reach their goals, because that’s what helps me achieve mine (making more money and becoming the “go to”).
