I'm still in the process of growing my portfolio, but have heard others 1031 all their smaller properties into a larger building and have a property management company manage, OR, set up a seller financing deal with another buyer that gives you the cash flow you desire. 

I understand you want to begin a property management company but that's a difficult business which requires scale to achieve meaningful profits.

It's one of the hottest markets in the US right now with so much population growth, job growth, and companies moving/developing here (26B Intel headquarters being built here, 68K+ enrollment in Ohio State University, Amazon, FB, Google, Honda, Nationwide, Anduril, etc.).

Just contact a company and rent a spot out for $25,000 for 3 weeks.  

Every company has atleast 1 person who leaves a negative review but what you fail to realize is that this is real estate.

That’s something I’m still fine-tuning as I explore new areas.As for scaling up, my focus right now is on leveraging tax-efficient strategies and building a system of limited liability companies (LLCs) to keep risk compartmentalized.

If something breaks, the management company fixes it. 

Investing in real estate in actually starting, managing, and marketing a company. 

Also note that my company will possibly either cover closing costs if we sell or provide property management for two years if we rent.

The interface is user-friendly, and the reporting tools are especially helpful for tracking property performance.One downside is that it can be a bit pricey for smaller portfolios, but the features have been worth it for me.
