@Kenny BaoTypically, larger properties are sourced through brokers.

This experience has provided me with a strong foundation in acquisitions, valuations, and deal sourcing.

I prefer to source all my deals off-market, which allows me to find properties with less competition and negotiate directly with motivated sellers.

Recommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

@Saul Vargas, to piggyback off others, sourcing a traditional SFH rental that meets your underwriting criteria will be complex due to interest rates and market conditions.
