@Ivona VillantiThe Reno Nevada area is landlord friendly, tech and job manufacturing growth, population growth, low property taxes, no state income tax and no large scale natural disasters. 

I am banging my head against a wall trying to figure out how to best scale.

If you want to scale quick do JV and  in a few years you will have jumped 5 years in REI

Climate control NRSF is typically between 2-5 fpp; while the non climate control old outdated facilities make up the balance (7-10 fpp) and tip the scales well beyond the 7’ pp rule of thumb. 

Having a property management service that is connected to its communities but still offers speed and scale and oversight and efficiency is incredibly difficult, but I believe it can be done.

I am in the beginning stages so I am unsure how to scale and market my services.

- Expertise & Track Record: experienced team with a proven history of success- Market Knowledge & Network: local market expertise and strong industry connections- Financial Strength & Flexibility: access to capital and flexible investment structures- Operational Efficiency: effective asset management and cost control through vertically integrated property management and leveraging economies of scale- Innovative Strategies: value-add projects, portfolio diversification, distressed funds, niche markets, etc.- Technology: use of data analytics that can lead to more informed investment decisions, and integrating innovative technologies to improve operational efficiencies as well as improving tenant & investor experience- Strong Investor Relations: consistent, ongoing and transparent communication and educational opportunities for investors, including a peek behind the curtains inviting them to the office for events and internal investment committee meetings- Customer-Centric Services: customized solutions to meet specific needs and interests of various investors and full-service offerings from brokerage, property management, leasing, to funds/syndication opportunitiesWhat else did I miss?

We are seeing if this is an option as we have ourselves in a scaling-up phase - we have purchased a commercial property local to us and are borrowing from our retirement to do so, with the intent of paying back with the possible sale of this home.  

Currently, I have one LTR and aim to scale my portfolio while maintaining my day job.  

Are you looking to supplement your income, replace your income, leave a legacy for your kids, keep scaling and figure it out as you go?
