hi @Dafina Sharpe, I'm working on finding one right now too in the area.

We have one unit that is closer to yellow than brown and it looks really sharp and inviting.  

@Ashton Sharp: Yes they would. 

Hi @Joshua Sharp , Welcome to BP and REI!

Knowing you are your clients only option, doesn't give you much reason to provide sharp advertising, consultation or keep up with latest local landlord/tenant laws.....

However for truly passive long term wealth I feel that searching out those path of progress properties  and either paying cash for them or financing them can lead the sharp investor to massive wealth and returns without ANY other involvement other than stroking a check annually for tax's and maybe hiring a farmer to keep the grass mowed..example is one I close yesterday  37 acres the family bought 27 years ago for 199k  .. we closed on it yesterday for 7.2 million cash to them.. they did not even 1031  just going to pay the tax and call it a day.. now I don't know if 199k invested in say a few rental houses over 20 or 30 year run would equate to an exit like this.. but for this family it cant get any more passive.  

@Jeremy Sharp, it's actually super easy.

Hey @Jeremy Sharp, I am not sure how PMs in Ohio operate but as a property manager in Lubbock, TX here is what my standard agreement would look like and the costs you need to include in your calculations if you will be using a PM.Management Fee: 8 -12% of collected monthly rent. 

@Kevin Sharp JrWelcome to BP, and congratulations on making the decision to invest in your future via real estate.I have written a few blog posts that may help you get started here on BP, and with your investing.

I will keep a sharp ear/eye for lenders who display these characteristics.
