So I certainly don't trust 50 random strangers a year to operate it properly.

Quote from @Derreck Wells: Obviously, individuals need to look at the local and State laws as their primary resource, not advice from strangers over the internet that can't possibly know the specific laws of every city, county, or state.

You can bounce around the internet trying to find one, get one from a friend (or stranger), or even buy one from an attorney.

@Ladinaka Samuels wholesale deals are never gonna be considered as “offering enough,” due to the fact that we’re calling strangers and asking them to sell us their properties at a deep discount.

Put yourself in the seller's shoes, do you really believe you would hand out a key to your house to some stranger to install a lockbox on your home for many more strangers to have unbridled access to your home?

While it may sound like hard-working people and high-income earners live a stressful life, those things are offset by gratification for their achievements and money is secondary to them.The above paragraph is to point out that it appears that you want to own real estate only for the money and it appears that you already have a mindset that you don't want to manage your properties and you don't enjoy all facets of the business and you think you can buy properties and have an expectation that you can eventually turn your business over to some strangers who have their own personal agendas and then you will allow those strangers to make decisions you should be on top of and allow them to manage your properties and have ultimate control of your fate.As for your saying that you can train and hire someone for less than the cost of a PM, I don't believe you can.

House hacking can work well if you're willing to live with strangers and can also help you hone your tenant screening skills as you get started.

Your construction experience is a plus for sure, but is it enough to get a stranger to give you a large sum of money?

This also keeps strangers out of your laundry room.

However, since you don't have to advertise, invite a stranger in, etc.
