I tried Invelo, I am just not impressed with the complexity of the "marketing" functionality.

Nothing is ever truly passive in real estate no matter which property manager you select.

If you don't do the homework, you will give them the impression you may not be up to doing the homework with real estate investing.

I don't have any interest in impressing others.

I've never used a trainer or mentor, but seems like someone who uses one needs a manual for how to select one.

I recently came across an INDEXED  UNIVERSAL LIFE INSURANCE POLICY as far as i understand it, just recently became available to the general public (used to only be available for the already wealthy) that I purchased for myself through a business so its a tax write off. its Indexd meaning it goes up when the market goes up but stays even when the market goes down, (no losses in value)sure it might "only make" about 6-7% and you could potentially make more money in another investmet, but along with the Death Benefit there are also Living Benefits, for illness or injury, which is a great hedge in an event someone become incapacitated in any way their family is still taken care of financially. thats the "isnurance" part of it that pays out "incase"after I think 1-2 years of "loading it" it becomes very Liquid ..you can become your own personal Bank and borrow your investment from yourself, you`ll have to pay it back to yourself, but you again get the interest write off.at the end of your retirement when you end up taking out your money out as "loan to yourself" instead of a draw so it not Taxed as income , essentially "Tax Free" I also understand that banks when lending also count your insurance policys cash value as an asset.which could help with loans from themI was really impressed with how it was presented and was so far one of the best "off the shelf"  retirement investment vehicles (compared to say a Roth IRA) im sure i left a few things out but thats how i understand an indexed universal life insurance policyyou can also "load it" pretty heavily evey year compared something like a Roth Ira which only allows you to load a max of 6k a year?

Toledo pretty much offers the same, if you're set on that city connect with @Engelo Rumora Thanks for the plug mate,Hi Ken,We probably won't be able to assist as we offer turnkey and only to cash buyers.Our lowest entry point is $65,000 and that buys a 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom home that will rent for around $800pm.Plus, I'm pissed of with investors and lately and keeping all deals for myself heheI think you are on the right track with the 43607, 43612 and 43613 zip code.I encourage you to take a look at 43609 and select areas of 43610 and 43620.BRRR out of state is a recipe for disaster but since you are in Michigan, it isn't too bad I guess.Even being as close as you are and even if you lived in Toledo, I would always advise to get professional property management.An investors role is just that, to be an "investor".Elevate and delegate...Sure, you can probably manage 1,2 or 10 properties but that can eventually turn into a full time job.IMO, you should focus on scaling as in finding deals, raising capital, buying more properties, growing your portfolio, etc...And not dealing with tenants and toilets.Wishing you much success

Chris, your company and website are truly impressive.

My suggestion would be to select someone with the most forum posts or most reviews.

The only issue I'm having is selecting the correct NAICS code.
