Once all four are renovated and rented and stabilized keep on saving until you can buy your next project.In Detroit I’m guessing it’s something along the lines of buy for 30k, rehab 10k, rent for $800.Network a lot to find a good team for leads on deals, reliable trades people, etc.That’s my 2 cents Almost precisely what I would do as well.

There are a lot of great PMs out there, so definitely don't want to make it seem like looking for a PM is the wrong way to go.For many DIY landlords and real estate owners here on BP, you want to factor in some of those expenses/costs on the front end so you have a more precise outlook on whether it is going to generate enough positive cash flow for you.
