However, these brackets are frequently pulled off by guests, leading to high maintenance costs.

Located in eastern Iowa it isn't a high traffic area.

I was wondering if giving not exactly 10 but something on the high side would attract someone to invest with me:)

Of course, using the property assessors there is a great feature to research the deed. 

It is challenging but we committed to going there every 4-6 weeks and having a great team on the ground ( will cost you some extra money) but they are the difference in having issueswe have one of the best cleaners in the area and our guy that cleans the grills does all my light maintenance and guest interaction if I need it(pets, too many guests etc.)3-4 hours would be a dream and you can definitely do it but you have to commit to going there every 4-5/6 weeks In my opinion because there will be things you need to address or upkeep- this is obviously only if you decide to self manage. 

But definitely run it by your securities attorney.

Not your fault but I'd be curious what they indicated...It's very surprising to me that they visited the home and didn't have an issue with double covered roof and missing shingles..iIf that's the case I'd say it's less likely you have full replacement cost on your roof but I'm just making an educated guess.You need to check your policy to see what kind of coverage you have.A claim will definitely affect your pricing.

That's pretty high for an investment property in this environment.

Definitely potential in the area.

Is that 7.918% APR considered high in current market conditions?
