Also most people go into MFH investing due to scalability.

I like multi-units because of scalability.

Seems to me biggest bang for my buck would be multifamily when it comes to cash flow and also think apartment complexes would be good but not for my first few deals.I have stock investments that I want to transition out of and put into the strategy and currently am analysis paralysis mode for sure but thought I would ask some more questions. being that I'm going to look out of state curious if there's other people that have done this and if so do they regulate themselves to get economies of scale and only look to purchase properties in single market {period} I don't know how much economies a scale you get with a property management company but that to me seems to be the only scalable cost. 

Not bad from an ROI, perspective, but don't think that's very scalable.

(I fly private on my big jet with 300 of my closest friends and allowed Spirit to wrap it for marketing purposes :-) )My biggest challenge is that I believe Residential Real Estate can provide an amazing lifestyle, better than most surgeons, but it is not scalable enough alone to take me to the next level. 

In order to make our investments scalable and to pull all of our money back out of deals, we would have a cost Segregation study done upon closing each deal and 1031 exchanging the depreciated value as the down payment for the next property.

So software with scalable features would be nice to have but are not necessarily required just yet.

When out of state, remove of that option, it forces to think and act like an investor, to build systems, networks, and THAT's scalable, being your own maint. tech is NOT scalable. 

The scalability varies depending on what’s being traded but, compounding in that way will always have some ceiling.I’d tried to seek investors early on but, with a negative worth from student loans and only a track record from paper trading I couldn’t really find financing.

Put scalable systems in place on your own stuff, that you can then use when you start a PMC.
