And always  remember to operate with integrity  Thanks Tim!

I’m not only working on my case with these buyers and a DeKalb Pastor & Chaplain of DeKalb Sherriff Office on over 2.5M...but this now appears to be related to a HUGE Mortgage Fraud Criminal Ring here in Metro Atlanta with quite a few of confirmed fraudulent documents on many properties as more evidence shows up.Some of the names I have confirmed provided or created fraudulent bank statement, operating agreements and forged QCD docs to obtain mortgages illegally then allow them to foreclose.

It's a game changer once you have a few employees and operate that many so everyone stays on the same page.

should allow you to save for your second deal fairly quickly.Full disclosure: I run a turnkey operation based out of Birmingham, AL—happy to point you in the right direction and answer any questions that come up!

So, 400k - 500k sounds like lots of money but if you wanna operate in the 300k+ entry point it get can swallowed up quick.One strategy I'd try is to be a buyer at the auctions, win a bid on a good house, close on it in cash (you should be a great deal under market value) and then get into a delayed purchase bridge loan product which will cash you out a certain percentage of the purchase and supply the rehab funds. 

Some don't require you to have a property management company because they operate like a hotel.

Doing Build-4-Rent without all this, is GAMBLING not investing.

Without an operating document, it's unlikely they could sue you unless it's in the city rules that all homes are responsible.

I’d search out an established local operator and pay them to operate it.

What strategies or systems have helped you grow from your first project to a scalable operation while managing risks, timelines, and financing?
