They practice law everyday, they don't know the market, have access to deals, etc. and they're certainly not out there performing the tasks that people hire Realtors to do in my experience.

The primary reason a lot of people move on to bigger deals (80 units plus), is that it's possible to own larger properties in markets that make economic sense but may be far from where you live. 80 Units seems to be the target so you can hire your own full-time property manager and maintenance person, versus relying on local property managers to manage smaller multi-family properties on your behalf.

If the fixes are cosmetic or minor, that’s a big plus, but if there are larger repairs (roof, plumbing, etc.), ensure you budget for those.

And yes, the risk is that we're paying for the due diligence work up front, to potentially get denied in-front of the City Commissioners.What I will say is that entitling a 8-10 unit subdivision is the same amount of work and time as entitling a 50,100, 200+ unit subdivision, so it makes more sense to go larger.

Once you have the difference, assuming that both options fully pay the mortgage, consider wether or not all the little tasks you do daily while self managing are worth the extra income.

The numbers are better, the city is growing and going through major revitalization, and it's a much larger city with name recognition.

Initially, we bought the larger house 7 years ago because we had family members living with us at the time.
