Agents help us with operational tasks such as tenant screening & applications, leasing, marketing and listing management, reporting, owner onboarding, phone & email support, maintenance requests, admin support, overnight support, nurturing relationships with realtors and relocation companies, graphic design, bookkeeping, sending owner statements, managing collections, and other back-office tasks.I have some agents in LATAM (Argentina, Bolivia) that I can make introductions to.

It's a duplex that I'll be house hacking.Outside of real estate, I enjoy almost ANYTHING outdoors, when indoors I love movies and board games, I'm dedicated to my volunteer ministry, and I've become fluent in Russian (learning Ukrainian).I also run my own SEO, marketing and web design agency, which I am PASSIONATE about! 

Depending on where you are at maybe being able to designate one of the units as that would save you.
