Because of this, I always advise tenants that unless they have family they can stay with on a temporary basis, they are safer to give their landlord 60 day notice than 30 days.  

It would seem to me that most subscribe to the philosophy that rates will stay low indefinitely, in part because that's the new precedent, but also because the Fed has to keep them low to keep payments manageable on our national debt.

This is in the midwest area.The listing says that the duplex is occupied with two tenants who are interested in staying for the long term, and have a consistent payment history.I haven't gotten much information, but I'd say for the area, each tenant is paying 800 dollars per month.Now I am 21, and I have about 20k in the bank, and im willing to spend 15k for a down payment.

My question is I usually make anywhere from $900 to $1500 every two weeks but I want a game plan or even a mentor that can help guide me to my first deal or give me a process I can follow.

I have started out reading the Ultimate Beginner’s Guide and have made my first draft of a business plan, but I don’t know where to go next. 

Also not staying up on local regulations of STR market.
