Make sure you choose a realtor who is used to travelling into your target community and not just engaging properties from behind a phone/computer screen.

Multiple vehicles of storing money; fixed income, equities, crypto, alt investments, real estate, etc.What avenue makes the most sense for you to get into real estate?

Quote from @Andres Ortiz: Hello all, as many of us have been experiencing, I have not gotten any value from any of the PMs that I have engaged. 

I understand I can increase liability in each individual landlord policy, but one single umbrella policy is much more cost effective when I have multiple properties.

Ours are very simple boxes and we get economies of scale since we build multiple houses at once. hope that helps  

. - I've had multiple vacancies, including one where the tenant left after a year and cost me $6k in turn costs.

The eviction did happen but SDIRA is actively engaged and working to help update the unit from the damage of the prior bad renter.  

Remember, the most successful investors often understand and use multiple investment vehicles.

One of the best ways to engage with the community is to remain active in these forums (reading & contributing).Setting up keyword alerts is a great way to get started.All the best!

For someone managing multiple properties or with a busy schedule, automating some parts (like initial messages) can save time while still allowing room for personal touches later.It’s inspiring to see your dedication to responding so quickly, even at 3:30am!
