I am not interested in being a slum lord; I prefer nice homes in the 350-450k range that have a good chance to appreciate and that attract stable renters with good incomes.  

I would prefer something I can buy once - software subscriptions are a nuisance.Something that automatically downloads transactions from my online banking portal and that can be used to easily categorize expenses for financial statements would be excellent.Thanks,KevinHi, Kevin.

You need at least one handyman on speed dial (preferably more), a good contractor for the bigger things, roofer, plumber, electrician, cleaner, etc etc.

If you're not sure of you preferred direction with your next property I would invest in understanding investing more thoroughly and read 5-10 books as well as speak to other experienced investors.

Our strategy is to buy out of shape properties and rehab them back into shape, so a GC with experience in doing extensive renovations at once would be preferred.

Free events or groups are preferred, as I feel the connections made are more genuine, but I am open to anything. 

I prefer new construction homes where an opportunity for a good deal presents itself How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

@Avani PatelFor my flipping business, I prefer to use fewer software programs to streamline things.

As for serviceability, I personally prefer kohler as a plumber.

Also, I'd add that any second position debt, preferred equity, or their brother's, sister's or cousins in any shape or form are at #2 on this list, in really any asset class.
