Agreed but Sole Prop will accomplish this without all the hoops you're talking about.

Or are you focused solely on the city itself?

you also need to source the property, and for BRRRR you need a goldilocks property - something that is distressed enough that you can buy substantially below market, but not so distressed that it's not worth fixing up.hope this helps - happy to help further

I like that, unlike with say trading for a hedge fund, I can create opportunities for others rather than solely line the pockets of someone richer (that being said I still intend to make money).

I recognize this is not the sole source of return, but the other sources have their return increase with smaller equity position. 

I'm particularly interested in what tactics people have implemented for sourcing quality deals (not the I need 100% financing bs)Would you:1.

Are these good sources?

A PMC is the ONLY one that will deal daily with your property.Here's some copy & paste advice on hwo to screen PMCs:Recommend 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.

This was my first time buying a property solely for an investing purpose, and Melissa Justice was the person that I was connected with to help me pick out properties.

I ask because most who write similar posts on BiggerPockets are unable and I am sorry but  "A unique blend of benefits that are favorable for R.E investors who are sole proprietors" sounds like something a  fear mongering asset protection company will tell you before upselling the expensive and unnecessary asset protection product.
