Instead, focus on how you can turn what you have into a consistent flow.To do that, you need to reverse-engineer what it takes to get consistent deals.The biggest mistake people make is this:"I have $3,000, 4 wives, 3 chickens, 2 feral ferrets, 5 girlfriends, 7 jobs, and only 2 hours every other week because of my job and all my girlfriends... how do I become successful with this hectic life and limited hours ?"

If the system automatically processed reports, they may get sent out before the manager has an opportunity to review for mistakes or make changes.What problem, specifically, are you trying to solve? 

@Jose QuinonesOne of the biggest mistakes I made in investing was not thinking of exit strategy.

Do NOT make the rookie mistake of being motivated by a fear if missing out.

Verifying last 2 years of rental history and income extremely important to find the “best of the worst”.Make sure you understand the Class of properties you are looking at and the corresponding results to expect.The City of Detroit has 183 Neighborhoods we’ve analyzed.PM us if you’d like to discuss this logical approach in greater detail!

@Josh WellsRecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

I own that mistake, but I haven't been impressed with WWC efforts in how they try to pitch LPs to re-invest more money in sinking ships.

I’m not sharing it to criticize the site owner, but rather to highlight how small mistakes can cost you money when advertising on Google.

@Devin Voelker,Like @John Mason asked, check to make sure your comps are solid, maybe even price in the worst case scenario for a rental. and see how that affects the numbers. 

Show me the waste.Also, if you’re not very familiar with the contracts in your state, it’s very easy to make a big mistake.
