Your investing selections will be influenced by your ambitions.Make both online and physical connections with other real estate investors.

It looks like your state allows you to select a provider and shop for lower rates:

So if this analysis is based on selecting properties based on how many Airbnb reviews they had, well that kinda figures.

It could be marketing your interest to motivated homeowners via yellow letters, post cards, cold calling, whisper messages, door knocking, driving for dollars, etc.Whatever method you select, use it constantly and relentlessly.

We interviewed them when selecting our management company and got a good impression as well, but it was our first property and their operation felt a little too big for us (this was/is our first property), so we went with a smaller management company and it's worked out well.

There are literally hundreds of great books you can get (BP has a great selection here) and thousands of hours of great content on YouTube that will teach you everything you need to know.

I took them to court for over $20,000 in damages and unpaid rent.I feel that one of the ways I am able to optimize my SFH rentals is by being really good at selecting tenants, I will not ever do this again.

Use their knowledge to help you select the neighborhoods that meet your near term goals.There are plenty of opportunities out there, keep analyzing properties so you know a good opportunity when you see one. good luck!

If young people understood these concepts it would revolutionize rentals because a lot more units would come on the market offering way more selection (yes at a reduced price after a while but it wouldn't be much because people are lazy and stubborn and wouldn't embrace this much) and they could be financially free, really free, in just a decade. 

If you got selected in the lottery you have nothing to oppose.
