All great advice. Having an accountant is helpful to keep everything straight. Separate bank accounts so that expenses do not get commingled between properties. That way you know which ones are generating what for you.  A lot of people fail to calculate in expenses for properties they hold. This was a downfall of mine when I first started investing.

Israel, I meet most of my people live at investors groups. Otherwise, I recruit people I run across live, like my UPS driver, Mail Carrier, Newspaper Delivery Person, Students at the college, etc.  I prefer those who come to the clubs, because they really know what I'm looking for.  Another investor I know from Arizona pays to wrap peoples cars to advertise for his business. The drivers do not have any responsibility of any kind. The Phone number the leads call are linked to the car with the wrap.

Send me your information via private messaging, and I will hook you up with our local consumer version of the Multiple Listing Service (MLS). I'd also love to have a conversation about what you are looking for.

Oscar, my name is Ginger Marphis. I am an Investor who is a Realtor. Work with Keller Williams Group One.  If you know anything about the History with Keller Williams and Gary Keller, they train and promote investing in Real Estate. This is one of the reasons why I chose KW as my Brokerage when I decided to get licensed.   My getting licensed was directly related to the problem I was having finding a good Realtor to help me as an Investor.  After realizing there was a need in the area, I obtained my license. 

I'd love to help you. Please contact me. I service Reno, and most of the surrounding areas.  (Including those close to TESLA)

This Meadowood Manor condo is a rare find! This complex is close to shopping, restaurants, and transportation. This unit has been kept within one family for many decades. Located on the top floor, this condo includes a newer HVAC and hot water heater. New appliances in the kitchen include a stove and refrigerator, and there is a brand new stackable washer/dryer unit in the bathroom. This particular condo is in an extremely quiet location, away from main roads.

Community amenities include newly resurfaced tennis courts, a clubhouse, pool and hot tub. Well maintained common area. Two assigned parking spaces with the unit, one of which is a covered spot. Current tenant utilities (gas and electric) are $52 per month. Trash and water are covered in the HOA fees.

Call and Make an Offer!  (775) 846-0349 

With Tesla, Amazon, IGT, Petsmart, and the many businesses here at Gigafactory, business is booming. The Housing Market is on fire, and builders cannot keep up with influx of industry and jobs. What a great problem to have. The rental market has rapidly been increasing.  

If this does not match your criteria, email me your criteria [email protected]. I will help you find something that is more closely matched with your needs.

Thank you,

Ginger
