@Camille Romerounless you are able to spend some significant time in your chosen location in person, and work on building a network there, i would pick a market closer to NYC, within a couple hours.  

After 35 years I’ve developed a healthy respect for this business from the school of hard knocks.The day I’ve discovered this business is easy or simple will be a good day to retire.

Pick a lane based on your strengths and long-term goals.

I haven't seen another PM tool do what they do with the virtual accounts, simple transfers, savings and checking accounts, etc.

BP has a book on Partnerships written by Ashley Kehr and Tony Robinson.On the technical side I would suggest partnering on a single flip which can be done with a simple JV agreement before jumping into creating an entity and crafting very good operating agreements.

Although not everyone, they pick and choose who they charge what to.

I feel like that sounds simple but in reality would hold up the leasing process for tenants that are not proactive. 

Even something as simple as utilizing ChatGPT to speed up certain processes such as asking for generalized information on a market's demographics and immigration patterns can be useful and save a lot of time.

Utilize tools like BiggerPockets for resources and calculators, and consider creating a simple spreadsheet to track property details, budgets, and timelines.

Simple question was Wagner representing you as the buyer ???
