Always use a property manager to keep your real estate investments as passive as possible and keep you compliant with Fair Housing laws.This way you can learn to manage the property manager and learn from experience as you go.If you buy a bunch of properties all at once, they may not all fit your buying criteria, there may be deferred maintenance that needs to be dealt with all at the same time, and you will not have accumulated the management experience building your portfolio one at a time.To Your Success!
