To answer a few questions, I recently just finished 10 SFR this past year.

@Thomas Farrell if you have any experience managing property/construction projects, I would look in to flipping properties and keeping the once that you see an acceptable cashflow on when finished.

You'll likely have to have your name on title for six months before you can refinance the property.This way, your spouse can pick and choose the type of finishes that your spouse would like and then when you're done finishing the rehab in six months you can get the home refinanced and pay your family member or friend a couple thousand dollars for their willingness to be on the loan.  

Be there when they finish. 

North Park buyers might love a historic Craftsman with modern touches, while La Jolla buyers want high-end finishes and panoramic views.

So I found and purchased 3 undervalued properties from wholesalers and we are just finishing up the 3rd one.

Bank pushed us to 40% down payment so also executed a $85K seller carry-back loan to cross the finish line.

Once application is finished you can run credit, background and eviction report for $15 your cost, or charge tenant I think it's $35.

Meaning walking the home, seeing what needs to be done to get rent ready and completely managing it from start to finish?

The overall trend of the 10-year treasury appears to be downward reflecting as well right now, with the most recent high of 4.8% on 1/13/2025 failing to touch the previous high of 4.98% on 10/19/2023 and now sharply falling to 4.62% today (1/24/2025).
