@Sean Gallagher - My initial reaction is that if you're thinking about a property manager to help oversee the daily operations you're probably at a point where you need to get one.

I'm not sure why this caused such a reaction, but I can say the language above is completely unnecessary and out of order on this forum.   

Let me know what thoughts/reactions you have here, and I will incorporate into my more detailed blog publication coming in a few weeks.

From the neighbors reaction, you would have thought we were building a garbage dump on those locations. 

If you hear that one bank is foreclosing on a lot of people, what is your reaction going to be? 

I just don't like to see the government adding all the regulations and significant costs (those systems aren't cheap) as a knee jerk reaction to tragedies. 

just had a few reactions to your post.

Days wind down and now they have a (knee jerk) reaction and buy something non-optimal for a property just to avoid tax penalties.Had they been realistic starting out they would have had time to locate quality properties to buy instead of looking for a Unicorn.

@Silas Melsonhi. a few reactions.1. there's no cash flow in the short term on a turn-key property.
