Quality over quantity.7.Master Delegation and Automation: PM is a complex industry with many moving parts—marketing, maintenance, leasing, screening, and more.

Fortunately, our parcel only has 1 neighbor, so less work from a quantity perspective on avoid dissent.

I now currently work for a PM in Milwaukee that has the same focus as you, to provide quality property management and we have prioritized quality over quantity as we have grown our business.

If money were no object, do you have a specific property (whether it's for sale or not) and address that would be an ideal first investment for you?

Your best bet is to read information from public blogs that approach both options objectively.

We help our clients do exactly that — evaluate properties objectively, stick to their buy box, and make sure every deal fits their long-term goals.If you'd like to see how we structure our analysis or want to review a few sample deals, we’re happy to share insights.

I do have a little objection to your "I used OPM to pay down my mortgage...plain and simple" comment, inasmuch as you still owed those "other people" all the money that they fronted you, until your money paid them off, right?

My objective is to buy about an acre of land, that is already leveled, access is being done, and utilities are going to be 5 feet from the property; and then build 3-4 shell retail spots on my plot, owner occupy one of them with a business and lease out the others.I am meeting with a developer this weekend, but have some wrong numbers regarding the average cost of building a shell space. 

Any change in objective should be approved.

I even had one slick guru recently try to sell me on creating my own course if I joined his program for $10,000 and they’d walk me through the steps of creating it and help me market it on doing LTR, and BRRRR and when I objected and said I’ve only currently got 7 buildings now with 25 units and have sold 7 over the course of years I’ve been doing it he said we’d focus on the deals I’ve been doing where I’m getting ARVs of $200,000-400,000 and not my actual numbers of properties owned.
