In San Antonio right now, you can cut your teeth on a new construction SF.

I know that I personally have no desire whatsoever to deal with tenants directly on a regular basis when it comes to management - I don't care how close they are.

They said that the information posted on the MLS is as accurate as they can find and that they take no fault whatsoever.

Makes no sense to me whatsoever.

Yes, there could be less work required, but you have to plan with conservative estimates and in this case without any inspection whatsoever, that is a full gut rehab.

A product that I usually go with is our 'No Ratio'/'DSCR' where we don't look at the income whatsoever. 

Yes, in short I am looking for a mentor to help me cut my teeth.

As easy as this sounds, it's not simple and usually like pulling teeth.

This is the single most important thing to remember when renting a unit: There is no scenario whatsoever where having a bad tenant is better than having no tenant.

So this "they only charge 5% a year" (when they know very well that despite NAR false claims, it costs between 15- 35% plus to 'resell' via the NAR / MLS, etc. at RETAIL, over 1- 6 months time...) makes no 'logical' business sense, whatsoever... so that then leaves only the: "wash, rinse and repeat,"OPTION!
