They provide excellent, practical advice on every aspect of MTRs including cost metrics, location strategies, market data sources, needed furnishings, and more.

I just got pre-approved for a property, but finding cash-flowing deals in metro Atlanta has been tough, most are barely breaking even or showing negative cash flow.

I figured I would still have to be very involved in this aspect, especially doing more than one rehab project at once. 

Only negative

Best advice is to keep exploring aspects of the RE investing world and decide which feels right and best for what you want to pursue.

Then refi into DSCR using appraisal market rent (I have program if cash flow is negative, not worried about that) and then after the DSCR loan closes, then they put up the walls to make it padsplit.

You can control a lot of aspects of the loan including LTV, length, type, and where to deploy the funds (BRRRR, flip, new construction).

@Dave Vona, there are a lot of challenges here in comparing the two.I have invested in SFR and syndications, granted syndcations only started about 4 yrs ago, where SFRs were 14 yrs ago.The biggest challenge in comparing these two, from a very technical aspect, is you are using syndicators 15-18% projections on value add properties (and the rent increases that can come with them) versus a more turnkey approach.So let's look at most syndicators in the value-add space and for completed deals:I would say, many groups hit roughly 25% IRRs for their LPs, often with a roughly 2-3 yr hold. 

Use this turnover as an opportunity to research and find a manager that can stabilize the property and take control of the situation so you can focus on other aspects of life.Remember: cheaper doesn't mean you'll make more money.Start by going to www.narpm.org to search their directory of managers.
