I did everything as dumb as possible. I met a guy in Jacksonville, Florida and after a few months, we bought a house together. We both figured marriage was right around the corner. It made sense to buy a house and tie ourselves financially. Well a year later we never got married and wanted to
My father, sister, plus I purchased a quadplex a few years ago. Our idea is that the three of us would go into this huge investment together, collect rent checks, plus be great investors.

I actually do not care for working with real estate agents. When I was young I purchased all my rental properties through real estate agents. It was such an evening mare coordinating with them. They didn’t have any knowledge or skills. They basically just facilitated contact as well as took a hefty percentage of the

I sincerely wish I would have done the Portland real estate buyer the whole time. I realized unquestionably late into the rental game that I am not somebody who enjoys owning rental properties. I hated dealing with the renters. I was constantly getting calls about congested toilets, troubles with the flooring, as well as a
I moved to Jacksonville, Florida, a little over seven years ago. I was delighted to leave behind the long winters of the northern part of the country.

The Struggles of Being a Landlord Owning an apartment building in Southern New England can be a smart investment, but sometimes it turns into more stress than it is worth.
