I do already have a construction crew run by a friend who fixes anything that needs attention before renting out.

A more holeistic approach is needed: long term wealth is mostly created by principal pay down and appreciation.

Exposed wire are a safety hazard and if they where missed by inspection  you may be able to complain as well.

Refinanced in 2023 and cashed out $40,000 to reinvest○ Address -  Mount Laurel NJ. 05054○ Managed by a property manager.○ Purchase Date - 10-15-2020○ Purchase Price - $230,000○ Original CoC 4.8%○ Current CoC 15.04%○ Current Value - $400,000How did you finance this deal?

There are not any larger cities near by that offers more apartments to look into. 

The house is a 4-Plex in Webster, MA, with the largest apartment on ground level that is currently occupied by her parents.2. (1) Apartment is currently rented without a lease.3.

You can contribute by finding deals or managing properties in exchange for a share of the profits.Lease Options: Control properties without owning them by renting with an option to buy, and potentially sublease for profit.Owner Financing: Buy properties directly from sellers willing to finance, bypassing traditional lenders and often requiring less upfront money.REIGs: Join real estate investment groups to pool funds with others for property investments.For a more hands-off approach, investing in turnkey properties in growing markets with minimal upfront investment would be ideal (like in the Southeast and Midwest of the country).

BTW: most owners that have hired a PMC, don't want to speak with you, much less meet with you in person to hear a hyped-up sales pitch.Also, you want to do rental arbitrage - so, you will need to be properly licensed to manage properties you do not own as required by your state & local laws.- why would an owner want to do business with someone NOT properly licensed?

@Tobi Isaacs this would be better answered by other investors in your market. 

@Doug Smith Yes, I put 25% down on my last investment which is what was required by my lender, whom I like.
