On the third and fourth time, I'd use PCs instead of YL.Search "yellow letters" in the search bar and you'll find a lot of great resources and strategies on YL and direct mail.Best of luck to you.

Fourth, if you have any questions please feel free to ask.Fifth, do not think because you have never done investing that you need to wait, find someone that is willing to mentor or help you with information!

A fourth thing is the taxes on flipping and how much money you lose with profits versus regular investing.Many other risks but you might want to wholesale this as mentioned.

If you plan properly (i.e. expect annual turnover); stay on-top of things (at least quarterly inspections); and renovate for durability (students generally do not keep tidy homes and are consequently at the higher end of the wear-n-tear spectrum), student rentals can be very viable.That said, I would not plan on sharing a 4-plex with student tenants while you have a new baby ;-)

Justin also has a quarterly meetup.  

Taxes are current (so somebody is paying the bills every quarter).

Something a lot of people don't know while pursuing their real estate license are all the fees that you have to pay every month, quarter, and year after you become licensed. 

The third one my PM said was in a bad area so we did not see it.The fourth one was in good condition.

But I travel to them every quarter I doubt many crowd funders travel to look at the potential assets especially low value deals they are doing far afield.. they may but I don't think it would be cost effective for them.

I am worried about the tenant’s privacy and mine and some of the problems I might encounter living close quarters.
