Hi Nico,Thank you for your post, You mentioned that hiring a few virtual assistants (VAs) to cold call has been effective, and that text messaging is also performing decently,I specialize in identifying and revitalizing unique properties—those that are not typical, for example, I recently spotted a triangle-shaped property that has the potential to be transformed into something beautiful and valuable, either for living or resale, Could you please share your approach and any guidance you might have on the process of using virtual assistants (VAs) to cold call and the text messaging strategies that have been effective for you?

I own/operate over 150 units in Pittsburgh and you can find every sort of real estate investment play here.

Many actually operate their real estate businesses more recklessly because of this false sense of security.

Would love any input here.Thank you.Hi Anita I specialize in STR sales and operations out on the OR Coast..oddly when clients don’t find what they’re seeking or are priced out in the coast several have purchased STR’s in upstate NY.

If your looking for the least amount of risk and biggest bang for your buck I would look for a company that is a reputable turnkey provider thats actually in Detroit and offers things such as an efficient boots on the ground team, all sorts of established local relationships, solid in-house management, an operation that is highly skilled and well versed in section 8, a company that has proven relationships with both out of state and local lenders.

With the run up of multi family prices, relatively high rates and the 3.5% low down payment this is virtually impossible (outside of some markets in the upper midwest) to make happen. 

Some key pointers so that your operations go smoothly:Underwriting: Don’t shy away from the process of analyzing hundreds of deals before finding one that fits your criteria.

The most important start is a good team or good turn key operator.  

How did you make an Operating Agreement or did you decide to call on an attorney?

From my experience oakhusr is more reachable in winter months than other placesI have been in operation for a little over two years my first slow season was awful, I can’t really give you an accurate number but somewhere around 25-30%.
