Hey everyone,
For the last 6 years or so, I have been living in a condo I own in South Jersey. My fiance & I are ready to upgrade to a single family house with some (alot) more room and a GARAGE!! Anyway, I have been toying with the idea of keeping the condo and renting it out. I checked to see what condos like mine are renting for. Ones in my development that havent had as many interior upgrades as mine are going for around $1200. My mortgage is just under $1000. Its not a very big profit margin, but even if I can get someone else to pay my mortgage, I think its a good deal for me.
I have never rented a property before. What is involved in being a landlord? Is it alot of hassle with tennants calling every other day complaining about stupid stuff?
Thanks,
Mark B
