I would appreciate it if you could help me set up a team towards investing in rental properties.I will be self funding my initial investment but will use refinance to fund subsequent investments.I will appreciate your guidance.Suhael Ahmed

I self manage our rentals (we had been using Empire but I want happy with their services) and use Cozy to run background/credit along with all the paperwork.

My dad, a carpenter self-employed for 30+ years, was working on the house next door, and saw him cutting the grass one day and struck up a conversation with him, he said "Have her make me an offer".

It is properly called ordinary business income and is taxed at the same rate as your W2 income, PLUS 15% self-employment tax which is Social Security + Medicare.

Look at what the poster is asking for (invest anywhere in the US) and look at the response which is definitely considered self-promotion in the forum.

Being that you already have property management experience and feel confident in your ability to manage a single-family or multifamily property, it really comes down to your financial position.If you have a good amount of cash available to put a down payment towards the purchase of a property and maintain sufficient cash reserves (or if you have a partner you can work with who does), then there's nothing wrong starting off with a multifamily property. 

Have you thought about self managing the property @Peter Faulkner?

If you are self-managing, that's a different conversation. 

I, like you, have a handful of my own STR properties that I self manage, and manage just shy of 20 STR properties located in Bryan / College Station, Tx for out of state/country investors. 

@Dayana Castellon I self manage and had spent the last six months focusing more on direct booking marketing.
