David,

Real Estate is a long term game, It is a really risky over leveraging yourself. It is important to look at your own financial situation and scale accordingly.

Hello Bigger Pockets Community,

One of the most important management tools we have is the software we use to manage properties. I'm curious, what rental property management software do you use and what are some of the system and processes you have in place? Thank you!

Hello Nick,

Thank you for sharing and I wish you all the best with your journey!

Ryan,

What are red flags you look for when a tenant applies for your property? Besides credit score, income, rental history, criminal history? 

Hello Steven,

I would be clear on what you want and the end result you are trying to achieve. I would analyze the location/market and work with an agent that can help you reach your goals. If I can help in any way, Feel free to DM me.

@Erik Escalante and  @Jaron Walling

Erik, you're right on the money. When I said "automated" I was only referring to the MLS side of things (I do see how my wording may have been confusing to Jaron though). Off market deals come to me occasionally through other brokers and clients, and I love passing them on to my investors that are looking (those are typically the best deals I am able to find my investor clients, but the MLS can be great too when the market is soft).

Jaron, if you're depending on building a network of wholesalers and writing offers through wholesalers/listing agents rather than having a dedicated buyer's agent helping you and representing your interests on deals then I am affraid you are the one that is at risk of being scammed.

I work with a number of both local and OOS investors and I can say there are usually pros/cons to both. With OOS investors there's usually the obvious advantage of wage-gap between the state they live in (e.g. CA or NY) vs the state they are investing in (interior states), which creates an economic advantage. With local investors I work with, they are able to take a much more hands-on approach, which especially helps during critical decision-points during renovation stages.
