The second Property Management company I never could understand the payouts and the payments was never correct.

This also creates quite a level of security for our clients, especially seeing Several builders in the BTR space go sideways over the last few months and we are currently trying to help several investors stuck in building projects that are only half built.  

Like the previous poster mentioned, you would be buying into a payment.

., while the average home price is $635,000 (Source) (at a 7% interest rate, 10% down payment, 30-year mortgage that would be $3,802 a month).

Can anyone recommend software which would accept monthly payments (from me to seller) and create proper 1099 forms for tax purposes at year end? 

my RE income from my rentals is semi-passive of course... so less active than W2 but more active than dividends or social security.

You have to make payments on the borrowed funds, which is then deducted from the money you are making on the investment.

The down payment is 25% down for single family residences and 30% down for 2-4 units.

Also, right now we are utilizing FB but we may change this next year to a platform outside of FB for better interaction and more security.

Living and working overseas can present unique challenges when it comes to securing financing, but there are definitely loan options designed for situations like yours.
