What happened to the good old shoulder barge or accidental door kick hahaI don't ever remember buying a house without getting some eyes on it.I've always found some a back door or window "open" heheIf a neighbor approaches me, "No habla ingles" 😁

I average these two numbers and use that as a baseline, adding a reasonable buffer to set the threshold.This approach helps ensure that tenants don’t feel micromanaged but also protects you from excessive utility usage.

I'm sure there are agents and investors with deeper insights, but for most of us, a consistent, long-term approach—similar to dollar-cost averaging when investing in index funds—seems like the most practical strategy.That being said, I am also interested to hear what others have to say though, so thank you for the post!

@Seth RoseI would look at the approach from a revenue mindset, not a discount mindset (which is where the BRRR concept was born).Firstly, I would like to point out that properties with great cash flow potential and deep equity positions aren't just floating around the MLS.

Does anyone have general advice on our approach to this process both in terms of educating ourselves and building our network?

If you live in California, the FTB still wants its $800 per LLC, no matter where your properties are.Question B:When it comes to setting up an LLC, here are three common approaches:1.DIY Approach:In most states, you can set up an LLC yourself for less than $100 in filing fees, depending on the state.

When investing in New York, be strict and strategic about your approach.

Alternatives include Stessa (free) and Buildium (more robust, pricier).For testing, a phased approach is generally best.

Can try to reposition to Class B, but neighborhood may impede these efforts.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, but 15-20% should be used to also cover tenant nonpayment, eviction costs & damages.Tenant Pool: majority will have FICO scores of 560-620 (approaching 22% probability of default), many blemishes, but should have no evictions in last 2 years.

Aside from educating yourself, the next steps are to honestly assess yourself and see where you best fit into the equation and to build sponsor relationships because these will be very important for you as you start out.If you determine that you're best suited for the "finding money" part, then the content approach is a good way to get your name out there.
