Now, I’m full-time with Zuma Capital Group (ZCG), a company I co-founded to focus on acquiring and managing multi-family real estate investments.

You can contribute by finding deals or managing properties in exchange for a share of the profits.Lease Options: Control properties without owning them by renting with an option to buy, and potentially sublease for profit.Owner Financing: Buy properties directly from sellers willing to finance, bypassing traditional lenders and often requiring less upfront money.REIGs: Join real estate investment groups to pool funds with others for property investments.For a more hands-off approach, investing in turnkey properties in growing markets with minimal upfront investment would be ideal (like in the Southeast and Midwest of the country).

I own a MTR management company in Los Angeles, currently managing 27 properties.

They develop, they build, they finance, they property manage, they will have HAO, cleaning crew etc. etc. etc. so the subsidiary companies make money every step of the way.From investor perspective: The investor pay $15 K to reserve the right to purchase 25 multiplex over the year of next 5 years. 5 each year.

Especially if you are hiring property management.

I have 1000 sqft so $250k.if I have no GC and manage all the subcontractors I will not have a Rolodex so have to find subcontractors and I’m sure there are a million other complexities.

Is it possible to have a property manager who manages some of the property, while I manage the rest remotely?

I have 0 experience managing STR properties, but lots of experience using Airbnb from my travels 😅 I am halfway reading Avery Carl’s book on STR.

Not impressed with other large institutional managers who are very light with boots on the ground and in many ways have the attidude they are assisting you in managing the property, not managing it for you.

I have five houses in Memphis area, and the biggest problem has been finding a good property management company.
