@Adeel MakdaRecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

👋It’s a pleasure to join this community and connect with people passionate about real estate.

@Jordan BrownWith $50,000 saved and no debt, you have a strong starting position for real estate investing.

I'm in Orlando and active in residential real estate as a Realtor® and also serve on the board of CFRI, the local chapter of the National REIA.

It is entirely possible that a Sponsor can be approved, but an individual offering may not.This industry, like all real estate, has its ups and downs.

BiggerPockets does have a marketplace where you can list properties, and you may also want to connect with local real estate investors who specialize in house hacks.

Have run across this issue several times when getting referrals from other real estate investors.

Congratulations to you and your husband on taking the leap into real estate investing!
