Being the highest quality locaitons in all of MS or at least central MS you get the very best tenants.. then my office staff handled the monthly collections.. so hybrid.

Quote from @Ben Trageser: Highly recommend Maven Cost Seg!

If you’re below $275K, focus on high-impact upgrades like improving curb appeal (landscaping, fresh paint), refreshing the kitchen and bathrooms (new hardware, lighting), or adding energy-efficient features (smart thermostats, LED lighting).

Capital raising lead generation tools, email templates, automations, and automated processes.

@Duarte MarquesPossibly but highly not recommendedFor those with no real estate experience or experience in taking on debt, it’s not easyTo do it also with little to no down payment or reserves in most occasions will end in disasterReminds me of when in high school a friend used to let his dog drive his car.

For the high cost areas like Palo Alto it is difficult to get a property to cashflow out the gate because rents have not caught up with the cost. 

2-4 units cashflowing in today's environment is very tough, namely due to high prices and high interest rates. 

@Nichole StohlerI find using a SDIRA to be a great tool for passive investments and growing your retirement with less stress than the stock market roller coaster. 

In today's world there are so many tools available to help you buying OOS. 

The quality of the reports you receive also varies.
