Hi Chris,
Thank you for the offer. It is very generous. I think I would prefer going at my first investment a bit closer to home. Not only for a bit more control but also to gain some knowledge about being a landlord. Thank you though.

I have a 3 bedroom house that I would be willing to sell for around $40,000 in Beloit if there weren't Realtor commissions involved. It was bought at a sheriff's auction and have been debating if I should sell it this month or rent it out. I'd be willing to fix everything up, satisfy the DIHLR stipulation and even have my property manager get a solid tenant in place for a few dollars more :) I highly suggest looking in the Janesville/Beloit area, I'd also recommend a property manager if you are further than a 30 minute drive, they are well worth the $50/mo.

I would love to start with a duplex or more to start but I think that is pretty tall dreams to start. I am looking at more single family. I would like to stick within 30-45 minutes of Mount Horeb if possible. I am not sure how comfortable I would be if I have to travel a ways (expecially during reno). I will have to also will have to come up with help for financing as well. I hope that helps.

Greetings. My name is Tony and I am brand new to the BP community.
I am looking to invest in my first rental property in the next few months. My first property I would like to look at would be no more then 50k. I know I can't reach that near Madison but if I expand out a bit there are opportunities for properties. What have other folks experienced? I am also curious of how far people are willing to travel to rental properties if they do not have a property manager. Any info would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
