Thank you for the reply. You did answer my question. I couldn't find a way to look at all the posts, and thought maybe I was missing something. I won't even begin to request something that would be that complicated. It was merely a convenience thing to satisfy my lazy side.

Again, I appreciate the reply and the heads up on how to check posts from each user.

I have 7 people I am following on this board. I read everything they post. Currently I am clicking on their name individually to find their recent posts on their profile.

Is there a way to have all the posts from folks I am following come up on one page?

I want to thank everyone involved in this discussion for their input. I have learned a great deal in the short time reading this.

How many offers are you guys submitting an avg before one is excepted?

What scares me is how quickly some of the Realtors are ready to follow the OP blindly.

I think if I start a cult, I will go to that board to recruit first.

Nick, Thanks for taking the time to get these going. The third one works fine now. I actually benefited from the fact the Realtor had some questions and was confused. You showed how to answer his questions and keep him on topic.

Its still showing up private for me.

Thanks for uploading these videos. Is anyone else running into the third video coming up as private?

I am assuming that the payments include taxes and insurance? If you rent the property, your insurance will be slightly higher.

Do you plan on managing the rental yourself? If you do, the numbers work out break even at best. Many folks use a rule of thumb of 25-45% of rent for expenses which includes taxes, insurance, maintenance, pm fee, vacancy, hoa and utilities while vacant.

I work with straight numbers.
1 month vacancy ~8% $892 + utilities
pm fee 8% ~ $100/mo
$2500/yr maintenance for a property that size ~15-20% ~$200/mo (some will say lower, I am conservative incase of a bad tenant, or major issue. )
etc etc.
