I'm new to real estate investing, and I have a lot to learn about all aspects of real estate investing. 

Appreciate the responses.My envision of more involved is in the aspect of getting into deeper rehabs.

I can crunch the numbers for cities that have the best cashflows, but then the appreciation aspect was relatively low.

It works for us and I personally like the hands on aspect (control issues I guess...

I am a genius at marketing wether it being facebook ads or building my own identity so I am not to worried about the market aspect more so the actual real estate aspect.

Rhetorical questions but you need to consider all aspects.

Goal: My current goal is to take action and learn every aspect of SFH REI ( acquisition, rehabbing and exit process) and potentially make some profit from my first deal.

When I first signed on with them they had a rockstar property manager named Jessica Brunk she was amazing in every aspect.

Then once you are in the investment, it is no different than owning a stock or mutual fund, as far as the work involved.And in the same way, any other aspect of real estate can be made passive, by doing it through a syndication or crowdfunding.

Owner occs will have an easier time getting along day to day, as will those who own something that is safe in all other aspects, i.e. ceiling height, stairs etc.
