Hi @Tamara Glass -- My Father In Law (Commercial Developer), Wife (Partner/Gladiator), and I have are serious about OZ and the opportunity.

I don't know if that's in your price range but if you added a roommate in your unit and/or did Airbnb it could help reduce that number to something closer to $0.And really, if you found a deal at the 1% rule in our area you'd be looking pretty good.

If a property is listed, from what I've seen, you can generally check on sites like Zillow or RedFin and see if they've added in the HOA fees.

I was wondering if it was possible to become a successful real estate developer in smaller markets like mine and the surrounding areas versus being in a major metropolitan city.

Newly educated , currently learnin from mentors and self development.
