And mine says jammed occasionally when the battery gets low.

Receiving an advice from a CPA with real estate experience for initial setup and occasional guidance, will be great for your objectives.

Main priority is the screening/lease/onboarding and the occasional letter I might want to store for recordkeeping.

Even as a brokerage, we occasionally have to deal with a false ad for one of our listed properties.  

Other areas I am seeing the occasional 2br 1ba in west town going for 220-240k which after amortization net $9000 a year on only $22,000 down at 10%.

and occasional vacancy its a 40 unit low rise. 

Follow state and lender rules on primary residence occupancy, as occasional stays may not be appreciated.Good luck!

As @RussellBrazil pointed out, it’s important to be mindful of the city limits between DC, Maryland, and Virginia — they’re all in close proximity, and it’s easy to blur the lines!

As an agent, I grew very tired of trying to find a broker that didn't disallow something - or several somethings, such as:A lot of brokers in Ohio don't permit property management - not that I want to be in that field, but occasionally something would come up where it was warranted (and worthy of my time), but alas, I had to refer the business elsewhere.I won't even get into the wholesale/assignment of contract topic - I was with another broker for a long time (also an investor) who allowed it, because he understood it.

Occasionally, you may lose some money, but if you know your business, this will be infrequent.
