I would think about tenant expectations and how much maintenance you’re willing to manage down the road.

I currently self-manage three properties in the Atlanta metro area and have learned a ton through trial and error over the years.

Since your goal is getting into commercial real estate, it might make sense to start with a smaller rental property like a duplex to get experience managing an investment.

Property Manager – This is another one I really need help from the bigger pockets community in the local area.

I did three thiings to rent the unit.......First I put an ad up on Craigslist, and Zillow rental manager which cross posts to trulia, postlets and another I cannot recall.   

No management costs as it would be self managed, and estimated property taxes by the average of the past few years.

One thing I'll add to an off-market deal is you might find a seller willing to do seller financing.You said, "I don't think the time exchanged to manage SFH would be worth my time and the cash flow most likely wouldn't be reasonable enough to hire a property manager.

Are you currently managing your own properties or do you have a property manager because many times a property manager can perform the work needed for it to be turnkey.

No management costs?

What makes you want to get into property management?
