The properties in OK, which are roughly 30-40% smaller than my personal residence are only about $400-$600 cheaper than my FL insurance.

When it comes to finding good wholesalers, a few approaches have worked well for me and others in the industry:1.Local Networking & Meetups:Check out local real estate investor associations and networking events in the Akron/Cleveland area.

Assuming you sold the home at the end of 5 yearsYour NET ROI would be:0% appreciation: 10.93%1% appreciation: 12.13%2% appreciation: 13.33%3% appreciation: 14.53%This ROI calculation takes into account taxes, insurance, selling costs, repairs (calculated at $3500) through out the lease.

Not sure how many PMCs you've had bad experiences with, but we'll take exception to:"Then do a thorough research on tenant applicants (note: leaving this to a PM may be hazardous to your financial health)".BP seems to have more threads about screening mistakes by DIY landlords as opposed to PMCs.Now, if you'd have mentioned Maintenance, you'd get no argument from me:) Even the PMC industry acknowledges maintenance as one of the biggest challenges.Rereading my post, I kinda see how I sounded negative toward PMs.  

Investment property (not primary residence) It's the industry standard if you're not going to live there.

Even if they had renters insurance, it comes with a $500 - $1,000 deductible just like your insurance.

I purchased my first single-family rental last year on LLC and I did the cost segregation study on that property now I talk with my CPA and mention about the cost aggregation study for filing the last year tax return (2024)he said that I don't need to use it because anyway my tax return is going negative because of all the expenses of closing cost insurance HOA and everything so what would you suggest me that use my Cross aggregation study for my tax return or not. thank you in advance for your response .Have you spoken with your cost segregation partner?  

I was able to build a great understanding of the distressed 2nd mortgage industry.

The "single family rental industry"  lacked a good platform to buy / sell these properties. 

There are still some docs required (ID, bank statements, copies of leases, copy of insurance, etc.), but it's WAY less document intensive than a conventional loan.
