Electric heat adds $400/month to the only 1 bedroom unit I own that has it.

I let the tenant chose their rent due date and frequency such as weekly, biweekly or monthly.

There is a gal who came by she said she can do social media marketing on a monthly retainer for 5k/mo.

Meaning if someone gives you $500k and you only are using $100k, you are still going to be paying some fees on the $400k because the lender needs to keep that cash on the sidelines.You are better off getting either DSCR loans for each or hard money at 12 months and interest only with extensions but realize that money will not be cheap. 

I also attend the "Multifamily Investors Network of MA" meetup that is hosted monthly in the Boston area when I am home.  

When you pay all cash there is no 6 month title seasoning wat to get out 80% of the purchase price.You can also come in with a 60% mortgage and a 40% all cash and get a little bit better of a rate and be able to waive escrows if needed.

Bottom line is you have a deal that could reduce your monthly living expenses to $100/mo.

As the representative for the tenant, I oversaw a remarkable six-month renovation project on a 15,000SF project that revitalized the property from an uninhabitable church to a stunning showcase car dealership.

My coin drawer locks have been drilled out twice in the last 6 months.

My new policy max is $10K, which isn't even 3 months rent in LA.
