  • Generally, the newer the better because of lower maintenance. But consider what the costs are for that maintenance. If you’re in a condo or a townhouse, association fees need to be figured into the cash flow equation. 
  • Garages are huge! 
  • A three bedroom, two bathroom home accommodates a larger population of prospective tenants than a one or two bedroom. 
  • Proximity to major employers is also important.
