I work 40-50 hours/week and during the day it can get pretty hectic with the day-to-day stuff that happens in my job.

All exciting stuff.

If it is just cosmetic stuff, could you do the work yourself perhaps?.

When you factor that stuff into the equation the cash-flow changes.

At first my biggest internal struggle was how much do I want to put down (3.5% - 20% AHHH) and how much can I spend to get a positive cash flow once I move out and have full rental streams - I've come to the conclusion that it depends on the deal. 

Sold it off Facebook posts (we caught some steam with some of the design stuff we did and attracted buyers early ) for $269k after some closing assistance , paying my realtor $3500 and all other costs associated we will net $62,000 !

Signed up to Cleveland Clinic's internal housing office last year and paid the $300 fee per property for the year - did 3 properties.

This stuff works if you do it correctly.  

This is stuff that is on literally every house.

Of Realtors leases cannot be used unless a licensed broker is affiliated with the lease.I do feel more confident with the stuff I have based on your responses.
