After getting the operators and the deal it is pretty passive.

If all prospects and leads come from yourself, then you are operating your own business.

Is it Leasing, Property Management, Vendor Management, Operations, Finance, Accounting... 

Managing the property yourself can save money, teach you the ropes, and give you firsthand experience dealing with tenants and operations.

If operating costs increase, then customers/tenants will eat the costs in tight markets.

I've gotten good results from Ninja Skip Tracing and Skip Matrix for my cold calling operation.

Hypothetically, if I found a property with strong rental demand, the income could cover loan payments, operating expenses, and generate a modest positive cash flow.While this example involves upfront risks, the idea would be to leverage my father’s expertise as a contractor to minimize renovation costs, boost the property’s value, and create a long-term asset that appreciates over time.

Its being operated at STR from last 30 months with great cash flow.

•Low time requirement for operations – the rental operations can be automated to a large extent maintaining a high hourly return and helping ensure quality control.Financing We have found a mortgage broker who seems to be doing a good job so far. 

It may surprise you, but we have always operated under the premise that renewals make us more money than new leases.
