As I'm in the beginning process of trying to purchase my 1st small duplex investment property.

I have a rental property in Western NC that was hit.

I'm currently analyzing a potential rental property in Houston and trying to quickly estimate insurance costs.

Once the renovation was complete, I started searching for a property management company, as I don’t manage my own properties.

I would like to know, if you have good success with Property Management teams in Huntsville market as my property in in C area(35810) and like to get a very good team who can find good tenants and handle the property well.Also, if you had general contractors who you had success with as well, as I am looking to do new flooring to this home. 

To start, I’d like to ask you a question: What is more important, purchasing real estate where you can obtain 100% return of your capital through the BRRRR investment method but otherwise break even or even worse lose money or alternatively  leave some of your capital in the deal but earn a profit when the property is sold? 

Congrats on your property purchase in Niles, a great NW Chicago suburb!!

Been a good experience so far but now I’m finding most of their other properties just won’t pencil for me.

Did y'all get the VRBO email on their new Host Communication policy and with it, sale of property?
