There are companies "Build2Rent" that have inventory being built now (some CO'd already) selling complete SFH, Duplex + Builder incentives to include closing cash and 2 years PM paid!

Quote from @Jonathan Grzeszczyk: Soon I am taking a job with a wholesaling company on the acquisition side of the deal. 

I get that.. but if your a top producer this is just cost of doing bizz to the title company orr closing attorney if your a one off agent you may have to pony up the money but to me it was necessary..

I don't think it is a bad idea to find work in real estate somehow as it will allow you to be comfortable with being around it in general, such as a property management company.

Look at the contractor company doing the repairs.

It will not replace humans in any shape or form, opendoor tried it, listing spark tried it, they are the two worst companies to deal with. 

Scumbag company. 

Everyone else is through tech, private equity, stocks, building operating companies, etc.At the end of the day, investing is investing.

I worked for a property management company that requires all potential tenants to check into the main office prior to showing as a means to provide a safe showing for the employees.

Also I did inquire on a PO Box with companies do provide a service where they can scan all mail and redirect them.
