You can do self directed IRAs and 401ks, but it complicates things a lot and you loose depreciation.   

I've done plenty of site built and mods in the Charlotte MSA. 

We do plan to also list with ALE and some other sites, but curious if anyone that has used Apartments.com or a similar site has run into issues with screening potential tenants, since it's a much broader user group than something like FurnishedFinder or TravelNurseHousing.com.

idk.Correct me if I'm wrong, I keep hearing about biggerpockets.com/insights on multiple videos and podcasts - and I thought it was a database of information you can sift through, sort, etc. similar to the excel sheet in the appreciation  vs. cash flow, but now that I've searched through the site it's just BP PRO blog articles?

Check out prospecting platforms like RedX, where you can call pre-foreclosures which is a good way to find off market deals.Other social media sites/groups, or simply network with local wholesalers online.Best of luck!

Aside from hanging your hat (license) with a brokerage, all you need is a laptop ($300 at Walmart), cell phone w/ hotspot, $100 per mo, some business cards (not required), a CRM (the one in your phone works fine when coupled with a task list - both free usually), maybe a web site domain @ $12 from Google, and a simple one-page site as a sales sheet.

You'll typically see them partnered with traditional Self Storage - meaning those Facilities offering Storage Units for folks to store their household treasures AND on-site parking spaces for Boats, RV's, company trucks, etc. 

Please tell me which auction site I should go to. 

I see about 23,787 rentals on airdna (given a few are hotel rooms, camping sites and rvs renting on AirBnB & VRBO) so lets round to 24,000 and I will just guess another 26,000 hotel rooms/rv spots/campsites.
