Figure closer to 5-5.5% on an investment property.You should figure something for initial repairs.

In this example, we could list closer to the desired/real value to close the gap.

Kinda kicking myself now, but it allowed us to afford the home we're in now.I live in Trillium closer to Brooksville.Insurance isn't too high here.

With regards to tenants I guess that’s the risk we all have to take, I might be wrong but I’m guessing in places like lowell where the rent is cheaper the quality of the tenet maybe more unpredictable compared to closer to Boston, what do you think?

I scheduled another home inspection to make sure all items identified in the first was taken cared of as listed in the scope of work.

1) economic status is stable ... nothing too dramatic pending one way or the other 2) market in pierce county healthy ... more inventory than king ( Seattle )3) most of Tacoma’s suburbs seem much closer in proximity to the city as compared to Seattle ... there are a few areas that will be lower in price ( and not as desired ) 4) 

I just want my portfolio to be closer to my forever home mentioned above, so I can take care of things easier.If you could kindly help me with these questions, I'd appreciate it very much:1.
