However now I plan to buy a property (basically to save on my rent and hopefully appreciation).I work in SLU and I have been looking properties in Queen Anne , Greenwood , Green lake , Ballard area.

Does anyone have any insight or tips, basically any advice!

At least not anything that would potentially get you help from the courts with, if you all decide to break the lease.I've never heard of a LL being required to put in a coin-op laundry in a multi-family house. 

I have helped investors just starting out to acquire properties this way, at minimal risk to themselves while learning the basics.

@Michael TrinseyYes, your basic understanding is correct. 

I feel like fighting for carpet in court is nonsense and usually the tenant wins. 6 years for carpet is a long time in my rental world.

I've been avoiding posting, doing my best to scour the forums for answers to basic questions.

. - So, basically whether you want info on house hacking, or syndication, Ben Leybovich is your man lolIt's called House Hacking - find it on Amzon, Charles.

The fact they are complaining online might be an indication the property manager dealt with them properly so be sure to ask the manager for their side of the story.I hope this basic guide helps.

Another thing to keep in mind should you ever contact an agent is don't contact the listing agent except for very basic information.
