TK tends to exists in high volume areas so expect questionable ethnics from *liars*, I mean "providers"1) People talk in these local markets 2) Contact a number of property management companies 3) After you get over "what areas do you have your doors" and any other intro questions 4) Ask the property management people "would you take on a property at address X,Y,Z and if not why?"  

@Eric Y. 

Or house hacking a multi family so you cam use an FHA loan and start with a lower down payment?

They will then defend this price by saying something like "current rents are below market, they could easily be raised to X, Y or Z"  or, "the landlord is presently carrying the utilities, you could put them back in the hands of the tenants"These are both improvements to the business which should improve the free cash flow the business throws off.  

Cam the 650 is what I owe on the new mortgage and is deducted from the 900 I was earning.  

I've found the transition from what we've been doing for a long time to the next or alternate chapter to be a longer and more fluid process than 'in a few years I'm going to do x all at once and go in direction y'.

I have a photography and art background, so I'm not looking to hire anyone, but I want to do better than compact cams or a phone with a wide attachment lens.
