It's very difficult for somebody in your position to find an equity partner on a $50K rental property, let alone millions of dollars of stuff.As others mentioned, start small and prove you can make it work with your own funds first, then the partnership arrangements will find you.

What if someone opened up a park next to his within those same good school areas he mentions in the podcast?

You mentioned developing 7-14 units or storage. 

For example, the properties I manage in Gladstone don't have the same paperwork needed. my brother mentioned Raytown is now adopting this as well  he also said something about if you evict in KC you may have to pay the eviction costs of the person being evicted and Raytown could also adopt that!

Attorney contacted me a week later saying they would redeem home and mentioned he would file in probate but has not filed anything yet. 

As has been mentioned, great photos and amenities are incredibly important.

As mentioned, 14 days or less is not a problem and is known as the Augusta law.

But as a previous post mentioned if you have some flexibility in your profession (time) and the personality to engage with tenants daily then it is truly possible to run things remotely when you go abroad.

Hi Armond,Thank you for the mention!
