I have personally purchased large apartment complexes from REITs and know how poorly some of them manage their properties. 

Also if anyone can explain how much I should have saved to get started and a rough estimate of how many single families I should have before moving on to small apartment complexes etc.If you have read this far I greatly appreciate it, thank you so much!

@Puneet Mahi,Property management can certainly be a profitable business, but it’s more complex than many people realize.

A neat feature with xfinity (no I don’t work there 😀) is the voice remote and once you have one box you can stream the service to the rest of your TVs cutting down the cost of extra cable drops. 

I am a rental property investor but i hate making things complex and the last thing i wanted to do was create a separate bank account for each property..yikes.

Low-cost amenities like a coffee bar with local brews or smart home features (e.g., a keyless entry or a streaming device) can also boost your ROI by enhancing guest experience.

Could be too late to form the more complex plans for 2024, so plan for 2025.Start an HSA plan.

Interesting so the gator method is a more complex form of whole saling basically, is that correct?

You need to avoid certain high risk features, which include balloon payments within 5 years, excessive fees, validate that the borrower has the ability to repay the loan, make sure they are likely to repay the loan based on their credit history, excessive late fees, long loan terms, etc, etc. 

If you’re confident managing more complexity and have the funds, a small multi-family property could yield higher returns.
