They offer a $10K repair fund to fix damages in addition to SD plus warranty for appliance repair etc.I have no say in whom they choose to move in, whether there are animals, limit on # of occupants etc. they reserve right to inspect property so i have no idea if they can tell me to remodel, paint etc.does this make sense i have a vacancy coming up in October (bad rental timing).

A broker shall not be responsible for supervising, nor shall the licensee be responsible for operating, within the scope of the brokerage or within the requirements of this chapter, activities that would be considered property management, including leasing, maintenance, and repair, so long as the real estate being managed is "individually owned" or "entity-owned" as defined below:(1) "individually owned" real estate is real property in which the licensee holds an ownership interest; and(2) "entity-owned" real estate is real property owned by a corporation, limited liability company, partnership, or trust, within which entity the licensee holds an ownership interest as an owner, trustee, partner, or officer, or in another beneficiary capacity.

@Jeanette LandFrom my experience working with over 400 investors, growing your portfolio with limited capital is absolutely achievable with the right strategies.

I would recommend considering conventional financing until you reach Fannie Mae's limit of 10 properties, then consider either a portfolio loan, and start your race to 10 again, or look at DSCR at that time. 

The result could be limited, no rent growth or even rent decreases.

If you want to be truly passive while living abroad you could consider a DST transfer or syndication where you transition your properties to professional management and get paid as a limited partner and not have to worry about any sort of property management takes.

Living in one of the units is a great idea when starting out so you can limit your living expenses.

This allows us to participate in both pushing rents while also limiting vacancy exposure.

This event is free but has very limited seating and we are limited to the first 50 to RSVP!
