Quote from @Kailas Tare: When deciding which market segment to target in real estate—whether it’s multifamily (MF) properties or single-family homes (SFH)—it's crucial to consider the dynamics of the competitive landscape and your own financial position.

Together with it, i have a mortgage free apartment that serves as financial security. 

Going DIY and self-managing this type of asset from another state may not be an easy task for such a building and neighborhood, it needs more attention (and probably capital).Try an unconventional approach.

@Kevin Wood: Fixed Asset Management module is included in the QuickBooks Accountant version where you can calculate the depreciation.

If not, then assuming that someone is in a financial situation that can afford a potential mishap, then would you say that BRRR is hands down the way to go, or am I missing something?

However, sometimes investing is more than just the financial return.  

You can still do a 1031 exchange foreign to foreign asset.  

@Jordyn Ohs Suggest you run a financial model and assume 100% vacancy.

Meet with financial advisers/wealth managers and see what other options other than real estate there are and how to best allocate / diversify. ie have you maxed out your TFSA?

I'm constantly fighting to be paid and their financial management is so poor that even when I've paid their commission invoices, they go marked as unpaid.
