My story is probably pretty common...bought my Fall River, MA condo in 2007 (when I thought we had hit the "bottom" of the market...ya), lived in it for 5 years.In 2012, my wife and I wanted to buy a house, and selling the condo was out of the question since I could only get about half what I owed.So, we became landlords.And a funny thing happened…I enjoyed the process and a lot of things about it.I’ve found two great tenants who are low maintenance and pay on time.So here I am, looking for more property.I think I know what I’m looking for as far as a good deal, but I worry I’m not going to be able to finance the deal when I find it due to lack of funds.Hopefully between this forum, the podcast, and the half dozen books I’ve bought, the answers will come.We’ll see what happens!

Hey Guys, We are looking for a duplex in Northern Colorado and this market is hot (says Captian Obvious).

If you don't know where this is, it borders both Washington, DC and Northern Virginia.  

What's up Joe, Pretty ironic I am in a very similar situation as you right now, this post just hit home.

Checkout the northern NV forum below.  

Take a look at those and feel free to hit me up with specific questions.

I am 23 now and setting my sights on northern ohio real estate.

If an underwriter really wanted to be obnoxious, they could in theory hit you with the annual maintenance fee, but $75/yr will be $75/12 = $6.25/month which is nothing. 

Because of this, I usually know as soon as something hits the MLS.

If you are either in the San Diego or Chico (Northern Ca) market, reach out and lets schedule a meet.
