Feel confident turning over management.

However, what is far more important for financial freedom is the location/city where you invest.The city where you invest is far more important than the current interest rate.

Most property management systems allow for one time charges (which these will be as they are variable).

@Lillian Pintaro,Birmingham’s a lucrative market—it’s been my stomping ground for nearly 20 years, and you can find some excellent deals if you know what you’re after and dive deep by zip code, neighborhood, and city block.For what it’s worth, we manage 2,000+ units (many for out-of-state investors) mostly in the north and west part of town—so think suburbs outside the city limits like Graysville (35073), Adamsville (35005), Mount Olive (35117), Center Point (35215), and the like.Since you’re also open to the surrounding areas, places like Odenville (to the east) and Tuscaloosa (to the southwest) could be worth checking out.

@Juan Mendoza  I think there are legal definitions for a bedroom and there are usual and customary definitions for a bedroom, with each dependent on who you are talking too and where you are located.  

We also have a brick-and-mortar location in the DFW area.

with some commercial brokers, property management  any expert help is an advantage !

Where are you located?

I do have a very specific and curated buy box, so I know what i'm looking for in terms of zoning, lot size, buildable/improvable sqft, location, etc.With that being said, do you still not recommend going through sheriff sales?

It sounds like you had a terrible manager.
