We use QB for accounting and Rent Manager for PM (I often feel like it uses us - although there customer service reps are great).

We have a few in our portfolio that are down very little.

I am worried about getting in with the prices being so high in the entire Portland area, but I’m more worried about not getting in and getting my real estate portfolio going.Best Regards,Justin

I would really recommend you hire a property manager.

Once that amount is adjusted you'll have a loan payment updated based off of the rate and terms of the loan. 2) In you long-term expense estimates I don't see any assumptions for property management (7-10%), repairs/maintenance (7-10%), and vacancy (5%) so I would re-run your estimates based off of new expenses.

Maybe go to work for a Property Management company. 

I am hoping to begin a buy and hold real estate portfolio through house-hacking.
