Without Property manager
I am looking for a rental property and I couldn’t find good deals near where I am living when I ran numbers. Because I don’t have multiple properties, I want to start out myself without hiring property manager.
To sum it up, My rental property will be relatively far and I don’t want to deal with too many issues fixing or maintenance issues.
In this case, do you think I should start with condos rather than townhome or single family because of this reason?

The numbers for condos may not make sense if HOA / Association fees are high. Also make sure you check to see if there are rules for rentals.
But yes, the outside maintenance issues will not be your responsibility with condos.
