Thanks for your response,Joe.Am asking from the perspective of a buyer.Am looking at some rental properties to buy and there's not much cash flow available as I work out the numbers.So am wondering what other characteristics you would look for if there's not much cash flow.Thanks

If it doesn’t work out, you’ll learn something about the process. 

If you can't get closed to that 1%, no need troubling yourself on figure out what the trash bill will be -- it aint going to work out. 

Not a whole course, just a one on one session with something you need help with.

Please keep us posted I'd love to hear if it work out for you or any horror stories : )

My plan is to use this to fund down payments for quicker fix & flips, but of course if numbers don't work out I'll need to hold and rent out and grab landlord insurance. 

We might need to think about splitting her time into two sessions. 

Let’s chat, but I think also run your numbers without the unit in the basement, how does that work out for you?

I often tell buyers who want to skip this expense that we don't hear as many horror stories as we work out the issues before closing and that's part of the process.   

Or a tenant disappears in the middle of the night and you discover $10,000 in damages.If you have a decent rental in a decent community, you can generally find a decent tenant and things work out pretty well.
