An individual like me would have to fly there quite often to inspect, buy, supervise rehab, verify rental processes etc I quickly realized I would be better off analyzing those who are offering the actual final product called “turnkey properties” that are rehabbed and producing decent income (net 10% + realistic and not hyped by them) with 25% down payment and had a reliable management company in place.

Silicon Valley needs to keep producing the hype to sustain its value and to stay relevant in Wall Street, if it's social media in 2010, cloud in 2015, now it's AI.

Newbies and suckers believe the mold remediation hype.

There is a lot of hype for Midwestern cities right now because of affordability...or perceived affordability.

The clearer you are on exactly what value you provide (real, honest clarity not the typical woo woo hype that gets peddled all to often) . . . the clearer you can be in your approach to your target.

Hyping it up by throwing around catch phrases like "Affordable Large City, Rated #1 Market, CAP Rate, Stable Home Prices, Landlord Friendly State."

Some are terrible deals, shoddily fixed up, over priced, over hyped and sold to out of state investors that look at the deals through their local glasses.

Craigslist ads with that kind of language and hype should be treated with suspicion, or just ignored.

Forget all the hype about Nevada and Wyoming LLC's.

I just hype up that I am being very nice to them by not forcing  them into another 1 year lease in case they decide to move later.I haven't had to non renew a long term tenant yet but I definitely like having the Option available.
