I definitely don't have to rush or spread myself thin to scale faster. thank you. 

It's like the 70% rule, you can use it to narrow down 100 deals to 30 deals to dive deeper, but you need to know estimates per house..

However, if I take my resources and spread it around, I can weather bad times better.

While they may answer their cell phone at all times of the day, most owners soon find out that the manager is spread too thin and constantly over-promises and under-delivers.At the other end of the spectrum there are owners who are too hadns off, leaving their PMC to try to figure out how much they can do without owner approval.

Another option is an installment sale, which spreads capital gains tax over multiple years.For unsold properties being distributed, there is generally no immediate tax event if assets are transferred at their adjusted basis.

One of the reasons i chose ReSimpli was because I called one of the other companies I had narrowed my CRM down to (will withhold the name of the company) and they had one of the worst support teams I have ever experienced.

You should be able to narrow it down quickly.

Spreading funds across 2-3 properties could provide diversification and steady cash flow.

It might help to eliminate the places you would not want to invest to narrow your search.

@Melissa Vass Scott The Midwest is doing better than most of the country.Detroit, Cleveland, Indianapolis and others.What criteria did you use to narrow your cities down to Cincinnati & Columbus?
