I don't think I've ever bought a new washer/dryer.

Also, ever since Costar bought them out there fees have doubled.

How ever I am told by those that do college rentals that the higher returns make up for all that. another thought is that the students graduate in 3 years and are gone which means you never get tenants to stay over 3 years.

The only change they'll ever accept is from a dollar.

I wasn't ever truly behind and never had a problem until SCP took over.

By the way just food for thought I have been investing for 20+ years and building a new home was the most annoying project I ever did.

I have one rental and a second that is to be on the market very soon. i plan on managing them up until i feel the work load is more than my time is worth, but i do have a question for yall.from my understanding a "typical" contract with a management company would be 10% of monthly renth and 50% the month when they have to get a new tenant. besides negotiating the rate, have yall ever heard of them charging 10% of mothly rent, but you as the owner get new tenants. in this case you would not pay 50% of rent when you get a new tenant.this would not be to cut cost so much, but maybe the owner wants to control who is in the house, but not manage the other stuff throughout the year.thanks for any input.

Also, has there ever been a home on the property?

Don’t ever let anybody tell you that you can’t do something.

Great guys if you ever get the chance.
