The rates beat hard money and it's all online.  

I'm perusing through some online listings for multifamily in my area.

House hacking with an SFDU could be a smart first step since it allows you to reduce your housing costs while building equity.

You can also check their reviews online at Google, Facebook, or Yelp.

My local cable, internet, cell and utility companies are already using it to field calls and answer questions online and phone.

Dig deep for online reviews, Better Business Bureau and their State Real Estate Board, etc.- Do be open-minded though as we have many of the above from tenants who claim we illegally evicted them (so, somehow we got a signed Write illegally?)

There are a ton of online resources.You could also look at the Arcade1 cabinets as well as the Gamer Legends stuff.

If your leasing application process is thorough and well thought out, and if your lease agreement has been well drafted by your local attorney and if it includes clauses that permit you/your property manager enough latitude to maneuver and anticipate undesirable tenant behaviors, both actions and inactions, and you have operational processes which align with enforcement of your lease, then you've done all you can do to reduce this inherent risk of an undesirable tenant.  

Believe me, I’ve seen my share of ups and downs: from navigating interest rate spikes to figuring out out-of-state managment back when online tools weren’t half as good as they are now.

Examples could include:Partnering with other investors to share risk.Using seller financing or lease options.Leveraging creative rehab techniques to save on costs.Negotiating with contractors in a unique way to reduce expenses.I’d love to hear any stories, tips, or approaches that helped you pull off a deal others might have instantly passed on.
