You sound like you might jump at the first bad application that comes in so you need to watch out for that as that is the worst new landlord mistake you can make.

Pro:- it’s trained to look for safety risks, expensive repairs- within minutes analyzes entire disclosure packet of hundreds of pages- works as another set of eyes that looks for things you should be watching out for, likewise of a companion - great to quickly learn of property conditions from the actual documents while on the go (given that you still follow your own due diligence process)- beta is freeCons:- still in beta- can’t share report directly unless copy and paste- only core documents (home inspection, pest, roof, tds, hazard, solar) are supported but not regional specific disclosures like hoa- estimates it provides aren’t accurate- not mobile friendly

What was your experience like—any challenges, advice, or things I should watch out for?

However, no one will watch out for your investment like you will so choosing, or even having a property manager is a major decision. 

In that situation, I personally would not be investing in direct real estate at all.If I wanted exposure to a foreign real estate market, I would invest passively and hire a manager that has years more experience than I could ever hope to gain, and whose job is to supervise and watch everything and make sure that it goes well.Just my $0.02.And whatever you decide to do: good luck.

IMO killeen is a solid investment. just have to watch which areas you are getting into. there are some pretty rough areas near fort hood but killeen is great because it is close enough to austin and people commute from there to austin as well. with fort cavazos near by and the new samsung plant coming online in taylor, it is a solid choice with steady demand for MF.
