I live in one of the apartment units too. 

BP,I currently own a rental in birmingham.

Currently around 60% Sold/Reserved.

I'm currently under contract for my first MF 4 unit property.

@Michael Bishay you're mistaken if you think buying S8 rentals will make your portfolio easier to manage and more profitable.You're just trading one set of problems for another.But, you probably won't heed this advice:(So, yes, seeing if/how any Class C tenant has trashed their current home, will give you an idea of if/how they will trash yours is a great screening tool.We've been doing this for almnost 2 decades.The COVID mainstreaming of Zoom has made it so much easier!

You can search for members and see the agents (alongside everyone else) in Seattle but the only way to show up on a list of agents is to pay Bigger Pockets for advertising (currently $2,000 / 25 leads here in Seattle). 

The property is in PG county Maryland, and I live out of state.  

Hi, would love some input/advice on this scenario:  I currently live in the Bay Area, and have a single family rental in Merced, CA that I believe has a slow appreciation: bought for $170k in 2005 & its now worth about $400k.

Current Home is in Shepherdsville, KY outside of Louisville.

I am interested in purchasing my first out of state (currently live in CA) investment property.
