What would you choose and why??  

I would love to hear from agents and there past experience's in choosing a broker for the first time along with any suggestions.

Therefore, if you do not include expenses such as Property Management, Lawn Maintenance, Snow Removal, minor maintenance/repair (because you choose to do them yourself) you will adversely affect your Cash Flow if and when you do include them.  

You basically get to choose when you take the deduction.

Select Code as the app, choose Python, and run this code:import stringmy_number = input_data['phone_number'].encode('ascii', 'ignore')all = string.maketrans('','')nodigs = all.translate(all, string.digits)number = my_number.translate(all, nodigs)output = {'number': number}Step 8: Run a GET request using the Webhooks app on Insightly's API v2.2 to find the contact with phone_number = number (from the previous step).

@Matt Ritchie the situation you describe really gives you the flexibility to choose which way you want to create the financing.Option 1: The local banks/credit unions will probably agree to get all 4 duplexes under one commercial loan:Pros: one set loan fees, one set of books, one tax filing companyCons: Balloon type mortgage, shorter amortization period, all properties will have to be under one entity and you normally won't be able to sell just one of themOption 2: Separate loans (local banks or even the big banks)Cons: 4 sets of loan docs, feesPros: you can get a conventional loan with a 30 year fixed for each property, you can partner with different partners foe each property, you can get partners to be the loan guarantors separately and you can sell each duplex off at any given time.

When I show the house, when I'm texting the tenants to setup the showings, when I am making my decision behind which person to choose to rent to, I am doing my vetting process.  

I am looking for a buy and rent, my price point is dependent on which market I choose but my high point is around $275,000-$300,000.

And I've heard I can get hired pretty much at my place of choosing freshly licensed.

The one thing I've learned from BP is that no matter what location you choose... run the numbers.
