I'm hoping to make some connections as I progress in my rental adventures.

I enjoyed catching up on how everyone is progressing in their investments.

I also keep an eye on rehab progress, verify contractor work, and make sure things are done correctly.If you’re investing in Memphis from out of state, what challenges are you currently facing?

Neither the Kenosha nor the Racine Landlord Associations are that progressive yet; they still tend to serve traditional investing. 

From what I understand:You can’t rent out a home that still has lead pipes until they’re addressed (at least not without risk).The city is replacing them, but progress is slow.Even after the city replaces the public portion, I’d still be responsible for the private part inside the house — which can be expensive.So I have a few questions for those who’ve dealt with this:1.

Do it in intervals as you see work progressing.

It was a lot of small, consistent steps, and plenty of seasons where it felt like progress was painfully slow.

It seemed like it was a no brainer being directly in the path of progress and a slam dunk as far as appreciation and improvement in tenant class.

In the early years it won't feel like a lot of progress, but for me it was around years 5-7 in real estate that I really "felt" the benefit of what I was doing earlier.

If you must update the condo, price a simple scope, line up a PM and GC with progress draws, and confirm your exit financing.
