Just starting out in real estate investing (21 years old, just out of college, no student debt, starting first full time teaching job in Canada in January).

Long story short,  I've been oversea teaching and have decide to head back the the US and start building the American dream.

page=2It's the class we're teaching on Aug 6.

But would like to meet some people that would like to teach my wife and I about how we should rent out our current house and buy a new house the right way. 

Thank you for teaching me how to get my foot in the door of real-estate!

Blake, there are 24 units at $950 per month There are 8 garden style apps, 8 townhouses with basements and 8 without basements ..what about now?

@Micah Manor - When you say you have had success with signage, are you referring to "bandit sign" style advertising?

We own old houses, if there is a backup and it isn't caused by the tenant doing something like flushing chicken bones (true story) then we will cut them some slack and teach them to avoid it happening again. 

@Michael Ealy What you said above:What I do is:1) Buy at cap rates based on the market (if the market is at 6%, I don't look for a 10% cap like what some gurus teach, I buy at 7%...even at 6%, specially if I can reposition the asset to produce more income)2) Add value to the building (improved interior finishes, better management) OR find the building's highest and best useYou didn't say - I go into a market trading at 6 cap and try to steal at 10 cap.

How many of these condos have you closed and how many of them were for STR and how many of the owners self managed and how many of them used a PM and which PM do you recommend or can you teach me how to self manage?
