Where better than Richmond, VA, a promising location for such an endeavor?

Just focusing on the passive income you want to achieve will leave you chasing cash flow which will have you buying properties in worse areas with harder tenancies that seem to cash flow better, but will have large cap ex.Any time someone asks a question about where to invest and it can be anywhere, they aren't ready to invest and are opening themselves up to every pitch in the world on an area.

Higher-quality areas attract tenants who are more reliable and tend to take better care of the property.

She’s better now and I’m friggin BORED.Anyone want coaching?

Better to get what you can, than to lose it all.

In my opinion, it is better to get a property rented quickly (even if it means reduced rent) than it is to get it rented for the highest amount possible. 

Most DSCR lenders will require a credit score of 620 or better.

I’ve found better results using my acquisition framework in the 10-50 unit space where there is one, maybe two owners.  

Do you think a duplex is generally a better investment than a single-family home for rental purposes?

@Alec DresslerYou’re on the right track using tools like AirDNA, but for better data, consider the paid version or platforms like Mashvisor for detailed rental analytics.
