We currently have 10 single family properties in the best school districts and we self manage.

I do see lots of self storage and warehouses going up, so my default assumption would be that the old shopping malls do NOT trade for less than build cost, but it's possible that the marketplace is not perfectly efficient. 

I've self managed in the past but managing other people's properties is new.

Quote from @Jaxin Pierce: I'm a self-starter entrepreneur who owns a vending machine business.

I am a self employed residential general contractor.

My goal is to continue to acquire more cash flowing rentals to eventually leave my day job and just self manage the rental properties. 

.- Background: Took some real estate classes before but really a lot of self learning on creative financing - Current Goal:To close my first wholesale deal within the next few months by learning from seasoned investors and applying proven strategies.I'm here to absorb as much knowledge as possible, so if you have any tips or resources, I’m all ears!

I pay self employment taxes on myinterest income from mortgage notes because I am considered a “dealer” and am in the business.

I have found that it is quite simple to self-manage a portfolio of 30-40 short-term/interest-only loans using a combination of QuickBooks and an XL workbook (1 worksheet "tab" for each loan). 

Much of the information in these reports is self-reported and not verified.
