Nice to meet you I'm almost halfway through "The book on rental property investing" by Brandon Turner and it's really open my eyes to real estate! 

In fact, this whole thread has been eye opening and awesome to say the least!

Also, keep an eye on direct mail campaigns; reaching out to out-of-state owners can yield great results. 

From my experience the first team member to recruit will be a local Project Manager-someone who wants to help you long term as your eyes in the field and boots on the ground. 

I’ve lost a lot of money on my 3rd deal, and it was very distasteful.I am keeping my eye open for better strategies, just haven’t found one that’s fits me better than BRRRRR at the moment.

AirBNB is a platform.Personally I like a single, eye catching line.

Plus, multifamily properties often qualify for owner-occupied financing options with lower interest rates and down payments.As for timing, here are a few things to consider:Market Conditions: Keep an eye on local market trends.

There are a few in my area that I keep an eye on to see how successful they might be and I’m always looking for properties with potential to be something grand.

My rates are higher than what both VRBO and AirBNB and Airdna has ever suggested but I keep my eye on competitors and am happy pricing higher and turning away some of the guests that might book for lower.  

It never hurts to have an additional set of eyes to look after your property.
