If you enjoy direct involvement and have time to manage, self-management can work.

We invest locally and enjoy being involved in the projects.

Quote from @Jonathan Weinberger: Hey BP community, Every so often I enjoy writing about my investing experience here.

By the time I retire, I want to have enough rental properties to have financial independence to enjoy my hobbies and enjoy spending time with my family and watch my children grow up.

I’ve got a few rental properties under my belt and am now diving into value-add multifamily projects to grow my portfolio.My focus is simple: build wealth, create opportunities, and enjoy the process along the way.

And after a couple of years if you are enjoying it start to scale bigger or faster or both.  

One thing I really enjoy about what I do is I actually go out to all my markets spend time there and get to know the local areas etc.. thankfully the deals i did for this guy in SW WI I did as a capital partners so I owned them and did not have to foreclose or go through his probate etc..

There are no restrictions preventing out-of-state investors from purchasing rental properties in Texas—these investors enjoy the same opportunities as Texas residents.Additionally, the financing restrictions you mentioned don’t align with reality.
