If you have a cell phone that's financed through a carrier, pay off the phone that'll give you another $25-30/month easily.

For viewing appointments, because I do not have their cell provider yet for email to text I use Square appointments app 1 hr prior for text and 2 hr prior for email.

Two part question.  1) What are the best digital options to read from my cell phone? 

I am about to medically retired in a few months due to cancer (already had surgery)  I have adequate pension income and have a very diversified portfolio ($700K of 401K, devident stocks, IRA, annuity, 200K cash in the bank, no debt and Have inherited a couple property overseas.Question:  Is this rental a poor investment (3% annually net income?)

Your way is the logical way and anyone w/ two brain cells would see that. 

That keeps most of my properties in B/C areas to keep the numbers where I want them.I've got to go run appointments, feel free to reach out if you want to chat.Thanks for your feedback, I feel better about seeing $150 in the cash-flow cell if the more experienced guys are targeting that as well.

I do have to call on their references but it is hard because I do not have cell service and I feel some people think that using WhatsApp is sketchy. 

Please feel free to call me on my cell any time.

It can be a hindrance if I am sent out to the field with no cell service at times.My BRRRR and multifamily experience is limited since I have never done it before, but I have been studying and will learn quickly.I am located in Yuma, Arizona and don't have a lot of freedom to move at will.Closing notes:My main thing is that I am looking to work with someone with the experience that I can learn from.
