Once you get your network built, it might actually get easy because you won't have to do marketing... your network will send you leads.Is that helpful?

When they try too hard, impose too many rules, it might be good for owner occupants, but really bad news for the condo landlords.

I would rule that out first, then look at other options.

Just going by the 50% rule, you are hardly breaking even and probably losing money.The garage apartment: is it legal with a CoO?

What are the rules you typically abide by with buying a place with current renters?

Maybe we can arrange a meetup in a location that would be easy to get to/park for people?

Personally, I like the thought that all my investments would at least attain the "1% Rule" - which this one DOESN'T.

But there is no hard and fast rule about how long it needs to be your primary residence.

It is way too easy to throw FHA off, even in the last minutes before closing.

Add a cast iron or aluminum fence around the pool for safety and charge rent high enough to include a pool company to maintain...maybe, I do not have a rental with a pool (above is our pool) but I could see it being quite a plus if safe and easy for tenants.
