Hi everyone!

Sorry I haven't logged in for awhile so I didn't see your responses! So renting the apartments have been no problem and the tenants have been great. Our problem has been with our property manager. She hasn't been on time with paying us and isn't very responsive with phone calls. We are currently looking into finding a new one so hopefully things will go better once we do. 

We had bought the property for 30k that needed some cosmetic work and we rent each 2 bedroom unit for $550 a unit.

Hope that helps!

Hey Evan,

We bought close to the Barber Center and so far it's going well!

Hi everyone!

We just bought our first duplex in Erie. Would like to connect to people in the area!

Thanks for explaining that to me! We're going to go for it. Fingers crossed it works out.

We found a property that seems like it would be a great 1st deal. We could buy it cash with money borrowed privately. The catch is that the seller will not let us see the inside.  It is currently rented out, but given there are no pictures and we can't enter that these are problem tenants.

We're worried that we might be getting in over our head since we don't know the condition of the inside. Given that we would buy site unseen we were going to offer $75,000 (listed for $95,000) and demand the seller clears out the tenants before we take possession. Too risky or should we go for it?
