I have a considerable amount of houses.I use spreadsheetsfor rent roll and track income, expenses and repairs.I use text for communications.Easy Peazy.

Think for someone that has investment into value add class B in Texas , core class A in Idaho , self store in Portland, assisted living in FL , industrial warehouse in Texas,  cannabis operation syndication in CA etc etc lol……It is way from passive in reality , you could do more passive perhaps in REIT as market risk is being shared more across many more investors.If your using the words "Passive" and "active" in the sense of active is doing literally anything, and passive requires literally doing nothing, 0 thought, 0 consideration, 0 research...... 

Each property is unique and has differing considerations such as the distance from the electrical panel to the area for charging and the electrical service to the property itself.

@Eric LunsfordAs mentioned it’s taxed at ordinary income - but there are debt funds that do private lending that can provide investors a 1099-DIV vs 1099-INT which is a considerable savings net taxes - it’s about 2pt delta - meaning 10% from debt fund is better than 12% taxed as interest (and a lot less work)

I have had to advise customers that the small addition to their house , when pulling a permit will trigger the inspector to make them add fire sprinklers to the whole house , hard wired smoke alarms , upgraded electrical panel , plant 15 trees . 

Spent a considerable amount of time in Fitchburg when my girlfriend back in the day went to Fitchburg state...

-Is there any other considerations?

totally hear you, pre 2021 in knoxville was a totally different ball game. again depending on your goals and strategies, your expectations aren't unrealistic. some deals may require more of an investment to make the numbers work like one of my student rentals that was a full gut project and took nearly a year to complete yet it spits out 15% cash on cash returns annually and i purchased that late 2022. investing in general is a risky endeavor, it's all relative to ones own risk tolerance depending on their position. we try and make calculated risks and look to evaluate multiple exits before pulling the trigger, yet there is still some risk involved. maybe a reit or syndication is the way to go if you want to be in real estate yet don't want to take on the properties yourself. either way i'm happy to make some local connections.
