Recently my duplex’s property value was reassessed and my taxes went up almost 3x what they once were (bc it was assessed pre-flip before my purchase) so my Escrow shortage is about 4k.

I grew up in the area for the past 13 years, duplexes and houses alike are at 2000 a month for rent in this case.

@Pedro C.It depends on the value of the property but for the typical basic property it’d be something like say $2,000 set-up fee and say $550 yearly maintenance fee.

Ya I pretty much wanted to lay down and give up.

It may sound nice to pay a 6% management fee but the extra fees can add up to be more than the other company that charges 10% with no additional fees.

The catch is, her job dictates where we land, so I'm unsure of the exact market yet.That being said, I have two main goals:Get started with my first few deals: Ideally, I'd like to invest locally (whichever US city we end up in).

We then use whitepages.com account to look up phone numbers to call those owners (not always easy). 

After 5 properties, I'm about to jump into direct to seller marketing and trying to pick up deal flow that way.
