I would want to keep extra for reserves along with contingencies, plus if anyone in the area has stored away the 10,000 for a cost segregation details on that would be helpful too.

It was more intended to run it through the community to see what other ideas or info could assist in helping search for my first property. 

I use a combination of CashApp and a website/app called "Rent App" which allows 100% free rental payments, and also helps tenants build credit.

Happy to help! 

I have read a number of bp books and have built up a solid amount of business knowledge especially in marketing as I have helped with a number of marketing oriented projects at my church.

I have light handy work from helping in my wife's business.

I'm particularly passionate about Pennsylvania and Upstate N.Y. and multifamily properties.Outside of real estate, I enjoy spending time with my granddaughters, my dog, my church family and helping others. 

You're rolling the dice a little bit, banking on that though, so when just starting out, stick with a solid rental that's performing well enough within commuting distance from Clay.Alright, hope that helps!

You'll find a wealth of knowledge and support here to help you along your journey.

I'm sure I can help you find something that works for your unique situation!
