If you’re hiring a PM long-distance, you’ve gotta vet them hard upfront or you’ll regret it later.

Personally, I advocate for a long-term investment strategy and would recommend investing the funds, provided you are comfortable with the expected return on investment over time.

Leverage your construction skills for flips, start with smaller projects to minimize risk, and consider house hacking or long-term rentals for a steady income.

If you had $50K in a Self direct IRA how would you leverage that to yield short and long term dividends? 

I took a long break and I'm paying for it now LOL!!

I have found there to be a real shortage of long-term rentals in Ludlow and the surrounding area.  

@Alex Lee203k is an amazing tool as long as you don't overextend yourself financially. 

Hey @Eric Andersen, so there are a lot of regs in the DFW area.https://www.fortworthtexas.gov/short-term-rentalsRentals are not allowed in residential districts: A-#, AR, B, R1, R2, CR, C, D, UR.Dallas recently banned STRs in single family homes but there was an injunction that blocked it.

Half the team focuses on long term rental management and the other half focuses on short term.

The era of "everything prints money on Airbnb" is LONG GONE!
