Rule 1 of landlording; THE LANDLORD IS IN CHARGE.

Hopefully, there are people here with answers.1) I am thinking of homes in the $125K range (homes are cheaper in the midwest, but this is still in the lower 15% of homes in my town), so that I can purchase more than one over the next 12 to 18 months.

Depending on what area you're in, pass through charges go by different names, but the concept is the same.

At first blush I would say that if you know for a fact thatyou'll be making more during "retirement" than now, don't defer taxes until then...pay now the cheaper bill.But I have to tell you...there are so many variables, youreally need a financial analyst to go over your stuff carefully -- make a spreadsheet for you -- and get somesolid advice.The reason I say that is this...if you defer taxes now, whatuse will you put the money to?

Lastly, I take charge of cleanup and lawn if it needs it for the 30 days prior to the end of a lease, though, when I'm showing the property to new tenants. $25 for 4-5 small flower pots and pulling all the weeds makes a place look much nicer.

I am wondering about starting to charge for parking, which is common in this area.

For example, i have looked at town homes, 4plexs, single family homes, Modular homes, etc. when i look at each one of these, they all have there different qualities. but New Modular homes seem to feel like they might be an easier investment to get started with to get my feet wet. they are cheaper, and they look like they would make a higher profit in renting them out.I hope my question is clear, and thanks for your help

(The last one is that I just bought a new $30,000 car [before I took charge of my financials]:shock:) This is a $200K+ house if it were rehabbed.

She's a big wholesaling promoter charging $99/seat a seat for her seminar which is a sales pitch for her $2495/seat Wholesaling Boot Camp.

That is the fee that would be charged for any updates or repairs that need to occur for the entire complex.
