It's going on year three of a being a landlord and I have been beyond blessed to have amazing tenants. I'm currently trying to be a first time landlord from a distance. What are some tips/systems/advice you would give or wish you would have known about being a first time landlord and landlord info from a distance?

How remote? Mine was 120 miles and I made it work by having a team do all the leg work.  I did the mgmt, application processing and inspection - - others did the DIY stuff or I  hired professionals when required.

I ALWAYS was the point of contact and then delegated if/as needed.  Operated this way for 6-plex for 19yrs.
