Just Closed on my first duplex in Johnstown!
I'm delighted to announce I have my first duplex (and first house) in Johnstown, PA. I'll need a property manager as I'm not currently local (our plan is to rent out both sides for now and move into one in 1-3 years.) Let me know if anyone has any recommendations and I'd also welcome tips for newbies!

Welcome Pamela and congratulations! My biggest tip is screen screen screen. Make sure to come up with your requirements for the tenant you are looking for ahead of time written out (things like income, credit score, criminal history etc.) and then stick to your guns and don't second guess yourself. It's less expensive to sit vacant for another month than to get a bad tenant in place.
