you should read more into low income housing. if the place is already beat up, just clean it up. low income housing is constant management. fix it up.

I keep my rental money in a completely different bank than my personal accounts. never mix them both.

1) you could call more contractors to get more pricing. 2) buy the fancy washer, charge more on the rent $$$ & make a special section on the leases about maintenance on these machines.

I would definitely start with “do you own any investment properties?”, any fees/hidden fees- even the smallest things. read the heck out the contract or whatever & ask questions if you need clarification on something! I’m self managing but this is some things i would do.

Hi, I would network with more experience real estate investors who buys & manages the properties. do ur due diligence before you hand over hand cash. I would house hack. I would buy bank/foreclosed/tax liens. maybe put down 5-20% down payment on a 4 unit.

Heyy. I'm trying to raise rent to fair market rent for one of my tenants. I have informed her through text and email. And heard no response. I texted again asking if she got my messages and if she had any questions. No response. I also texted if we could set up a time to chat on the phone. No answer. What should I do??

Hi Ryan
Find a reliable property manager for accurate rent rates to determine how the numbers will work. Think you're a little shy on initial cost to find a SFR in C grade area, You're closer to $100k + rehab of $20-30K for a 3/2. We've been investing in Memphis for 12+ years in primarily this asset class with good results BECAUSE we have a great property management team. Can refer if desired.
Like Ko said the first one is the most difficult & then it gets easier to move on.
Best,
Mike

Twannisha,
If you are just changing out a sink then I would use a qualified handyman. I always hire the specific contractors I need for each task. In my case it saves me a lot of money. It all depends what your comfortable with. I've been rehabbing properties for over twenty years so I don't need a general contractor to oversee the project for me.
