Can I just go crazy and just contact all of them over there and whoever has the property for me wins?

The property will need to have a slight rehab to get it up to STR standards, but when complete it should easily be a $200k Gross booking revenue property.

This signals that this is my final offer.Focus on win-win solutions. 

When maintenance is scheduled, we send out a reminder, and if they won't be home, they can easily authorize entry.Sometimes, our contractors will contact tenants directly to arrange the most convenient dates and times for visits.

I do understand that not partnering pushes back your timeline substantially...I'm in the slow and steady wins the race and stay small, own it all camp, though. 

If I had to guess I would say your money could “develop” 1-2 houses in Staten Island but in the right market you could easily get up to 12 or possibly more good units fully paid for.

I generally recommend if you're not going to buy a property in the city/market where you currently live, the next best place to look is where you have family (and presumably a place that you'll visit relatively often and easily).What is your price point and are you looking for turn-key properties or something along the lines of a "fixer upper", assuming you buy in Peoria or a similar priced Midwest market?

You could easily be $100k in for water/gas/power/sewer if you’re talking 4+ lots. 

That looks like a win for a first flip these days.

May this year bring you strategic wins and profitable ventures in an evolving market landscape.
