Just like any real estate investing, there is always risks but we are well trained in the community on how to ensure we are protected (including the right paperwork). 

Although I am not sure how to enforce this one, there should be active, on-going communication from the the borrower to the lender .... as one would expect from a GP/Operator to the LPs in a private equity syndication. 

I would love to meet some new members, young or no, whose goals might include a solid cash flow and providing good value to renters who are exploited or poorly treated by unresponsive landlords or large corporate operations.  

If you ever want to exchange ideas or discuss what types of properties you are looking for, I’d be happy to connect.Also, it’s fantastic that you enjoy bodybuilding and working on cars—strength training and cars are big passions of mine, too.

They go over a lot of the fundamentals that I completely agree on as a high skill operator in this space.  

It also makes it harder for other operators down the road--- not your main concern but we all impact each other.What about you and your wife live in the garage unit, and rent out the house for a lot more, at least until all this permitting is figured out.

There are "turn key section 8" operators in Alabama that market to do all of the due diligence for you and you never even have to see the properties! 

So in that same vein does bifurcating assets from operations help?

Just want a software that does a great job handling the overall operations smoothly, a one-stop-shop for all PM needs. 

If looking to scale flips and create systems around it to minimize your time and involvement, I'd highly recommend putting a team in place that can handle the day to day operations.
