It's a 3 bedroom house and we plan to use technology such as a smart lock, WIFI exterior cameras, and a smart thermostat.

Quote from @Jay Pragasam: we have too many newbie Lp investor also that think just because they are rich from tech they can blindly invest as LP somewhere without due Dilegence….

Jon Wolfe, the founder, is a friend of mine so let me put you in touch with him and his tech team will help you get it sorted out.

They are billed as "a scientific approach to single-family rentals" and use "institutional grade property management," which usually means they are a tech company in real estate and likely either don't have the existing property management relationships in each area or you chose an area where they don't have enough units through Roofstock for the PM they chose to care.

Hello Mike, Syracuse and surrounding area is benefitting from an influx of tech companies and a huge chip manufacturing company, Micron, which is building a $100 billion fab over the next 20 years. 

That said, I wanted to share my story about how I found an out-of-state property, got it rented, and set it on autopilot.BackgroundI’m in my late 20s, living in a very high cost of living city and working in tech.

I think your demographic might be more hotel people rather than families.I would also still go with smart locks on every door.

I recognize there are other ways I could invest this cash (including another property) but I am being mindful of levering myself out too much in the current environment where job losses are more common in my industry (tech).

My focus is on affordable housing, large-scale mixed-use projects, and community impact, with an increasing interest in scaling into multi-family acquisitions and new construction.I’m also involved in medium-term rentals (MTRs) and short-term rentals (STRs), using my tech-driven background to streamline and scale these efforts effectively.

They are locked in with a 6% interest rate on a property that we went above asking price on.
