Thanks Kyle!  I'll take 'em.

I have three rentals in Westminster and Broomfield, CO and I just moved out of town.  Does anyone have a good handyman they can recommend to me.  I am accustomed to doing all of my own work, having worked in construction in general and HVAC in particular.  But I'm not close enough to run over there and fix things when they break.

I noticed that the federal court house in Gadsden, AL is on the auction block and there is currently only one bidder.  I think the courtroom would be a great venue for a hip new restaurant and the two upper floors could be office space rental or even lofts.  Anyone from the local area interested in taking a leading role in this project?  I'm in Tulsa, OK, so its a little far for me to manage directly, but I could invest some $$.

The auction should close in about a week.

@Jeff Santee  I used to live in Louisville. Say hello to everyone for me.  Just curious what expenses you include in your simple formula?  Are you just thinking monthly cash flow like utilities, management fees, etc, or are you doing the deep dive into taxes, insurance, capex, et al?

I've just moved to BA from the Denver area, have three rentals back in Colorado, and am studying the landscape before diving in.  Gonna be living in spreadsheet city for a while.
