Half of me says do your research and hire a PM company you can trust (is there such thing?)

The flow of the market changed in 2015 - fewer listings, for more buyers, price appreciation accelerated markedly in the later half the year creating a new high.

I am half way there now with 10 properties and plans for 4 more by the end of this year.

Our first apartment was on Eastlake, we spent a lot of time on capitol hill.You seem to have great experience to draw from and know what you want next, that is half the battle.Be sure to check out the podcasts and set up some key word alerts.

Tonight I am planning to talk to some neighbors at our newly rehabbed rental about the property, give them half sheets of paper with info about the unit to give to anyone they may know and offer a $50 via pre paid card to them if they refer the tenant we pick. 

Currently the personal home was for half of what the approved mortgage amount was for.

If a tenant found a pirate chest in the basement and called the old owner after closing would he be entitled to half of it? 

I too became licensed this year, and after listening/reading all that BP has to offer for a year and half, I took the plunge last month and purchased a SFR (buy & hold). 

However, even being only half way through it right now, I'd have to say it is fun, quick, and thought provoking.

Account Closed I send half the day on the phone.
