So a rent property pops up for sale from someone that I know and we buy it for 111k.

I’m interested in 2-4 MF with a value add opportunity in C-/B areas owned by mom and pops in artsy LA areas 

I scour for MLS listings each day to see if any good opportunities pop up and I'm also slowly training my mother and sister to drive for dollars.

But the patience paid off and a place popped up at a decent price.

Hello everyone I'm a Property Manager of 15 apartments in a small town.Tenants pay their rent at our bank.   90% of our tenants pay with a check.I would like to set this up so that Tenants may pay their bill online.Are you doing it this way and is is working for you to have your Tenants pay via Pay Pal or Pop Money or?

Another route is to run a search for your area(s) of interest, see who pops up and check out their profiles.

Your ROI could be higher, unless, of course, the housing bubble pops).I haven't put in a cent since purchasing, which is nice.

I'm sharing a map from the MLS that shows listings that sold for over $100k in the past 12 months - as you can see there are some higher value houses starting to pop up there.

I am working through my model and the keeping the best interest for my client / friend / seller keeps popping in my head.

If you want a non risky challenge try and find a deal to wholesale, it has been hard on me so far and new pockets of chaos keep popping up in my pursuit of a first deal that have taught me how difficult it can be to find a good deal or do real estate.
