Issue:  computer-generated random phone numbers for outgoing calls. 

So - somewhere 2 hours away, or somewhere you like to vacation in, or where all your family lives, or where you plan to move someday.Too many people are trying to do exactly what you're doing - pick a market based on a formula - and they end up buying a random 'cheap' property thousands of miles away, turn it over to people they've never met or even spoken to, and then... lose money.  

It's not a sound way of doing business, especially if you hire some random VA to call for you in an area they know nothing about.Agents should always be building their sphere and creating warm inbound marketing from social media, events, and meetups instead of doing spray and pray.

I tried attending some local meetups, but like you mentioned, most were focused on investing locally or a random mix of different strategies—fix and flips, short-term rentals, you name it.

I just got another random $475 bill from them.  

I'll save you the details but...Per door cost: $63,300All in Cost: 700kTotal Revenue: 137k(ish) annuallyNOI: 65-73% (in the expenses we included: insurance, taxes, $75/month per door repair expense, management fee 8%, grass cutting, & a misc fund for random crap business license, etc.)Now...

Instead of 40 houses cash flowing $200 each or $8000/month, you buy 10 houses and pay them off for a cash flow of $10,000/month with 1/4th the headache.People don't understand the amount of time, energy, and stress involved with managing a lot of doors, especially if they are lower-class properties typically needed to generate cash flow.

It'll be up to the next generation to figure out if they want to build an empire or not.

It seems there’s a common misconception largely influenced by social media, online courses, and influencers who oversimplify the process that real estate is an easy, passive way to generate income with minimal effort.
