If you can come in and operate effectively I think you'll find success rather quickly due to that.BTW - for a property management platform I would highly recommend Buildium.

A broker shall not be responsible for supervising, nor shall the licensee be responsible for operating, within the scope of the brokerage or within the requirements of this chapter, activities that would be considered property management, including leasing, maintenance, and repair, so long as the real estate being managed is "individually owned" or "entity-owned" as defined below:(1) "individually owned" real estate is real property in which the licensee holds an ownership interest; and(2) "entity-owned" real estate is real property owned by a corporation, limited liability company, partnership, or trust, within which entity the licensee holds an ownership interest as an owner, trustee, partner, or officer, or in another beneficiary capacity.

There's a ton of blue collar and healthcare jobs that are providing a tenant demand for houses in that rent range, and more to come with Blue Oval City expecting to be operable in late 2027. 

If they try to pay their labor as 1099 they run at great risk of violating a host of draconian labor laws such as AB5, the borello law and a litany of "misclassification" laws.There are substantial differences in how "right to work" statstate as operate as opposed to "non right to work" states.SBA defines a small business based on employees and revenue size.

@Luke Spencer I am not on the management side but I can tell you it took 2+ years to fill 300 units at one of our facilities and the other just hit 300 units in 12/13 months so it really depends on the demographics, and local housing market trend, the more people moving in and out the higher the demand for storage.I think if you're looking at a saturated market then the upfront cash to turn the warehouse into self storage is not a good idea but then again, maybe those operators are on back roads ( low visibility ) and don't push google ads well.

We operate in the DFW, San Antonio, and Houston markets, helping investors grow their portfolios with turnkey LTR properties.

The plan is to keep operating the property as a PadSplit post-acquisition.

If so, you'll need to figure out why you're not making money - is it other operating inefficiencies or your debt terms?

Now have a portfolio of 6 properties with some that are owned others just managed but turn key operation for sure. 

I’m a long term rental guy, so make less than an Airbnb type operation on cash-flow .
