Do what you need to do to get in compliance w/ local laws to serve as a property manager.

I can’t say I disagree with the analysis, just think (I’m sure this will sound incredibly stupid in the future) ultimately bonds and mortgages are likely to trade in a very narrow band the next few months, without a really nasty recession I find it hard to see them getting much below the 3.75% they hit Monday, I also think the Fed wants to keep the number below 4.25% because while I don’t think the economy is in a recession or anything it’s clear to me and I think the Fed as well l, that the economy probably can’t handle another year of rates above that, they will lower rates & possibly even taper qt to achieve that outcome.

@Nicholas L.

We serve plenty of flippers/wholesalers who make around $500k/yr and some are higher.Once your salary is replaced (or a good portion of it), then stabilize the flipping/wholesaling with a great team so it doesn't require as much of your time/energy.

We'll see where it goes either way I am determined to design build something to make into a successful STR business.oh yeah and currently taking a major L on QQQ shorts that I was probably too early into.

Quote from @Nicholas L.: @Elisha Johnstoni'd house hack where you live first.and if you're serious about investing in Ohio, make trips to Ohio.do not buy a random property solely because of its low purchase price. that will set you back.good luck. 

It certainly does impact our business for anyone considering using our services and there are many facts that are misrepresented or omitted.RTR serves as a turnkey and new construction marketplace that researches various investment markets throughout the country and connects investors and sellers.

The company in question did not, and more so, gave a sense of urgency for me to pledge my interest in the deal as its first come first serve.
