I like it - thanks for sharing!

Phew - Made it on to BP before the end of birthday deadline to wish you the best today and this year! On to all good stuff this year and beyond!

Hi Jimmy - if you are in town that would be great to meet up in person!

In Idaho, the title company used is buyer's choice. I'm with @JOAN DICKIE - each area has it's nuances, so check with the title company or your local real estate commission.

I posted a new thread for this with the actual date and time: Tuesday, February 25th from 5:30 - 7:00pm at the Bonefish Grill in downtown Boise. We'll be in the lounge area in a very informal setting. We would love to connect with Boise/Treasure Valley members in any sector of RE Investing!

Bigger Pockets meet up in Boise at the Bonefish Grill, 855 W. Broad Street, Boise. Join is in the bar area - stop by for a beverage and/or grab an appetizer. I will be there from 5:30 - 7:00pm. No formal agenda - just drop by after work to introduce yourself and chat about real estate investing in the Treasure Valley. No experience necessary! Thought it would be fun to meet downtown near all the new development going in right there. Key words: Boise, Idaho, Meet-Up, network, Treasure Valley, Meridian, Eagle, Caldwell, Nampa. Please drop me a line through BP or at [email protected] if you think you'll make it!

I would say look very carefully at the Condo Association's rules and bylaws. A couple of things to really look out for: Ability for them to charge special assessments on top of regular dues - those can be huge. Also, some place restrictions on the occupants and often the pets allowed on property. Patrick brought up excellent points as well...beyond the ability to get financing, you just want to make sure you can rent them out and have the freedom you need to place your tenants of choice. Good luck in your decision!

Great start Gabe! I'm with you in finding places that you would be willing to move in to. Biggest tip I would say is be very thorough in screening when you sign on your tenants (in that price point I would think you have lots of interest) and go for long term tenants if possible. After you experience the time and effort that a tenant turnover can take - you'll be all about those long term tenants. :) I don't think you mentioned if are using a property manager - so if you are, that would carry over to being very selective in who you choose as your property manager.

Congratulations - that is exciting!

Welcome from Boise, Richard - thanks for introducing yourself. I'm biased, but I think you are sitting in a great area to get started in. As you can see - you have so much valuable information and support here on BP without shelling out thousands. I'll look forward to seeing you around the site and perhaps in person soon!
