@Jared Smith this is definitely something I'd be willing to entertain.

.- Technology & Automation: Utilizing project management software, such as Buildertrend or Monday.com, enables real-time tracking of budgets, schedules, and contractor communications.

If you can secure a solid first lien within your budget, it’s a great way to get started.

The only who ever entertain such with any form of a smile is those truly without comprehension of it's impact and livability. 

On the other hand, if you have a lower budget, let’s say $100-$150k.

There's lots of opportunities in developing neighborhoods, but also seems a bit saturated at the moment.Also, definitely budget security (remote control cameras, alarm system, etc.) for your properties, as there are a lot of people who occupy themselves by breaking into houses and stealing anything they can sell.Lastly, there are a ton of contractors looking for a quick buck.

Once you have your goal figured out it will help you dive what areas make sense for your goals and budget.

Figure out which one works for you and your budget then be consistent 

@Logan RheaReasonable budget for a cosmetic only renovation of that size.

We have some more affordable studio units that I fear will attract the budget concise crowd which could get some guests not able to afford the next 30 days payments and have to be evicted.Would appreciate any advice!
