Quote from @Tony Schmucker: Quote from @Wale Lawal: @Tony SchmuckerFrom my experience of working with over 400 investors, your strategy to relocate, house hack, and transition properties to management is a strong, methodical approach.

Whatever approach aligns with your goals, I would hook up with a solid team focused on that investment strategy with the experience behind them—no need to pay your dues if someone else has and you can learn from them. 

Speaking from hands on experience on both platforms as I've worked with both Carrot and Wordpress sites (more than 400 sites so far since 2017), what carrot brings into the table is their simple, all in one, fast website platform.

In my opinion or experience this is how to be the millionaire next door. 

Feel free to shoot me a PM to discuss, I am happy to share knowledge and answer any questions you might have

Best of luck with everything it seems you have the experience and workmanship needed to be successful! 

All channels can work, but in my experience, the greatest oppportunities often pop up when you know exactly what your returns need to look like and keep your ear to the ground in your market.

There are conditions that must be met.Also, I believe the taxes are higher in Richland County than Lexington County, but I don't like there, so I don't have personal experience with that.

The problem with metrics is that there is no one metric that fits all investors and situations.Looking at some of the enervation shows on TV, the price they pay and what they put into the property would never work in the markets we have experience in.  

No free lunch in this market!
