For one, you have more control and the ability to be more agile by not going the turn-key route.

Then I'll have a set ROI and sift through markets to see which has the best availability of properties with my target ROI... this is an iterative process between markets.Good luck investing!

BRRRR talks are interesting in longer term (and we'll do due dilligence on our research on whether out-of-state BRRRR carry sufficient risk we can't tolerate), but for us, to establish a solid, honest, trustworthy professional team of best people in the area (PM, KC, GC), and get it right for the first few iterations is much, much more important as a first step.

She just bought it so unless something has happened in her life, you may go through many iterations and find she does not actually want to sell and has been entertaining your idea to be polite.

Agility seems to be the key.

As much as possible I'd recommend getting really clear on your goals in life and how real estate fits into those, and then iterate from there.If you are buying at a distance (specifically you're not moving from house to house and collecting houses as you go) then it would be a great simplifying factor to buyer AN asset or two with many doors, but there are other ways you could structure it so that small multis are the way to go.So, back to the root . . . what do you want to accomplish in life, and what role does real estate investing play in that?

and the first iteration I found was from 2010. 

If you have enough of the right kind of capital [long term oriented and willing to ride out the ups and downs of a bad quarter or year] then you can't help but make money since home prices generally go up and to the right.The first iteration of innovation is often clunky and worse than the status quo.

Hello everyone,I know certain iterations of this question have been asked over and over again here, but I have not been able to find one that quite fits my situation.I am in negotiations for a SFH in Gwinnett County, GA.

This has not been feasible with larger contracting companies or home inspectors because .  . . that old tale of truth -- larger companies often lack the agility of smaller operations.
