Really puts into perspective my strategy given my current situation.I will continue to accumulate capitol and work on my skills/knowledge for when i will embark on my rental real estate journey whether it be here (if i stay longer than anticipated) or when I come back to the US once my contract is completed. 

That's three hours out of that manager's day, plus gas. 

I have a condo-tel under contract right now.

Quote from @Jake Handler: I am under contract on purchasing an off-market home, seller finance in North Jersey. 

My experience shows it cost way more than 5K in marketing per contract and The close ratio is less than 50% due to title issues or a seller changing their mind and/or being difficult ect.I believe it, it was just an example. 

If anyone does have a property in the area, I’d like to connect, I have a seller financing deal currently under contract which I will have to terminate cause I didn’t do the due diligence on the actual section 8 FMR. 5k burned.

If you focus on the niche, and on getting a "deal" under contract, the $ will always come you only need ask for it. 

This also leads owners to ASSUME simpler is better when it comes to management contracts.

If it was me and I wanted to operate in a big way in PA I would be running billboards and ads big time:" Are you in a wholesaler contract want to make more money Call me "  I will beat anyones best deal ..
