I'm aware that HOA's along with surprise assessments can kill margins and not all complexes allow non owner occupancies, but with all that in mind, I want to hear a little bit about markets these type of apartment complexes are thriving in.Keywords: Fresno, Sacramento, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, Las Vegas, FloridaThank you in advance for the feedback!

Easy to get here from where you are - just sayin'...

@Inna Chernyak  The numbers in my example aren't based on any specific deal but are rather a pastiche of other investor summaries I've seen, rounded around to make the numbers easy to calculate.

Often times  accountants write off a lot more than you may be receiving in real life so dont be surprised when the lender uses worst case numbers.- Also when you leave your current home, or vacate your current home will you have a rental agreement(s) in place so you can use that income to offset your mortgage payment?

To be honest I had only maybe 12 followers... when I first started... now i have about 16 :)    12 of which were actually somehow my friends or people I knew... and the other 4... well... just some other typical folks in similar spectrum who are trying to dive into the world of the commercial real estate...What I found quite surprising is that a lot of folks are actually interested in my story...

I wasn't sure what to expect, as I'm new to BP, but I'm pleasantly surprised by the support and timely feedback.

They put it up on a tablet if in person, and it not only makes them look 'cool' but less paper, easy to reference, data storage for waiting lists, and you can always print the application if need be.And echoing @Christopher Giannino We charge whatever the credit check fee is, and apply it to the 1st month's rent if accepted. 

The low price points across WV make it an easy area to get positive cash flow. 

As a result prices are high. plus San Francisco is not a easy city to deal with for renovations making the permitting process long which costs money.
