I want to rent the log cabin out, turn the store into a duplex style house ( 10 year old building that looks brand new), and almost rent out another building that was converted into a house next to ball fields.In our area ball fields are worthless, there's no cash flow anymore like we have in the early 2000's, so I would like to build another 4-5 fourplexes or something in that nature.

You can see expense/income ratios for different styles of properties in different areas of you market to help fine tune where you invest.You can create a network of people to fix different types of issues from simple maintenance to complex repairs.

Its a competitive market but based on your investment goals and management style you can target specific areas around the city. 

I would also consider throwing small minifridges in the rooms to add to the dorm-style feel you seem to be going for.

Like a 3 tab architectural style.

For example, what geographic area, style of house, multi unit versus single family, size of the house etc.Step 2: Once you know what you want to target, that allows you to then build the list.

For example, what geographic area, style of house, multi unit versus single family, size of the house etc.

Details:  1930's Colonial style on quiet street, 4 beds, 1 1/2 bath, basement.  

i agree with all of the post above, a mentor will cost you money only if you want it to. many people have different learning styles , some learn easier by just reading books and other need some one there to show them how its done ( like me ).

Be sure to do some detailed comps on the Airbnb site -- look at places that are getting booked that are the same size, same style, same area.
