Come on Collin, your Gatlinburg brotha, at least try to make this hard on me. 

And 54% of the basis would be allocated to the 200K house.You'll have a small tax bill on the difference between your sale and purchase prices.  

Everything my realtor sends me is already on Zillow and has many eyes/bids.

Small boutique firm, lower mgmt fee, personalized service, good mentions from here (BP forums), focused only on KC.

Right now I am focusing on building a strong buyers list before I really hit the ground running on marketing for sellers.

You run the numbers on the project and stress test it.

Depending on your flavor, this could be good or bad.Connect with a great property manager early on, as many won't work just any property in any part of the City.Being an east coast city, our housing stock is fairly old and unless it's been properly rehabbed, will have typical "old house" maintenance.None of this is meant to discourage you from investing in multi units in Baltimore, but I'd try to set realistic expectations about the market here.TLDR; we have a wide variety of "multi-unit" structures in Baltimore.

I don't think the two unit COA is that bizarre, you either have common areas to maintain via the COA or you have to do cost sharing on all expense by each owner sending in half.

So I ended up finding houses to buy near bases in the US, and settled on doing LTRs in Texas.  

I am also happy to share any insight on BRRRR strategy.
