The first steps are to grab some yellow ‘Rent to Own’ signs, get your ads up on Facebook, Craigslist, Zillow, and just keep putting the word out there.

We're finding houses for buyer not buyers for houses" finding buyers first eliminates most of the guess work and you can hear your property search toward what your buyers actually want rather than tying a property up under a contract and then finding a seller that may or may not be interested in your deal cuz it may or may not be apart of their criteria.Sorry for the overly winded comment.

I'd recommend to first look at where you'd like to invest it to see if it's feasible or if you need to adjust your buying criteria.If you're not in the market for something new then I'd look into adding an ADU on the lot and upgrading the windows on the main unit to triple pane glass so that the noise doesn't bother your future tenants.

There should be more margin to compensate for the headache, added risk of damage, excess turnover etc.

Wayfair--every time I fill my cart online I reach out to the rep and ask for added discounts on top of the pro discount I already get. 

I know it is only one property that I am managing, and I might be overcomplicating it by adding in software or whatever it might be, but I would appreciate any advice!

For your initial investment, focus on finding a good property without the added complexity of an LLC.

In states that define dual agency ad the broker being the dual agent (not the actual agent) it's going to happen constantly at the medium and larger size firms.

The financial benefit of reducing or eliminating income taxes very much out weighs the hassle and costs of a potential audit.You don't need anything fancy for a time log.
