I started my OOS HML  career in Detroit and that was 2002 and WOW coming from our area what an education I got.. my clients that were doing turnkey at the time and all the buyers were out of state ( basically LA based) the local on the ground operator was very good he had all sorts of tricks to try to keep the houses safe.. the one i really liked was painting the copper pipes grey so thieves would not steal them..

However, a recent delay in its opening, now pushed to 2025 due to supply chain challenges and other logistical issues, has created a mixed landscape for real estate investors.Real Estate Growth: The Big PictureWhen fully operational, BlueOval City is projected to employ about 6,000 people.

Needs an owner-operator to manage. 

From what I see all the people answering to me here (and there are so many) are just coming against and refusing to agree with my simple statement: "a landlord is not above the law or norms by its personal choice or presumed capability to judge what he don't know" or as well "a landlord cannot deny or miscarriage a service to a stranger without a known valid reason and at the same time pretend to be operating professionally or loyally to the moral"Basically I'm telling if you are not able to do your business correctly it would be better to find someone else than you, mainly when your ideas about "squatter" or fair treatment are coming from ignorance or completely invented. 

Look into contacting some builders that operate larger scale in your area.

Look for an experienced operator to partner with.

A good rule of thumb is to keep 3-6 months of operating expenses in your rental account as a cushion.Once you’ve got that covered, you can start investing the excess.

We also do a property orientation and show them how to operate the house, change filters and batteries, turn off water main - and of course the mystery of GFCI outlets

My updated expected monthly rental income will be $2,800, resulting in a cash flow of $795 per month (excluding my share of the split utilities).I plan to set aside at least 80% of my cash flow for property-related expenses.Additionally, I’ll be installing keypads and security cameras for enhanced safety and operational efficiency.

Alt lenders will normally be higher on fees, rate and perhaps leverage at time of close but that's not always indicative of cash required to operate.
