Hi Joshua, I am an investor friendly agent.

Hey @Sheraz Zia PPC is an extremely effective tool for marketing your real estate business.

The price-to-rent ratio makes sense from an investment standpoint, but further research is needed to identify whether those respective areas will prosper.

He's an educator and does make money selling education, but like most of the others doing this, he began by doing deals.

So, your focus may need to pivot from high rental cash flow to little to no cash flow as a rental with an appreciation upside.I would recommend taking your $150K to $200K and securing a solid equity position in something that will cover its expenses and maybe provide a small cash flow, but then is poised to appreciate nicely over the course of the next several years. 

Hiring someone to do the work will likely cost too much (I would charge a small fortune, it's an incredible amount of work) and doing things as cheaply as possible will bite you in the *** later when you start having issues with your own shoddy work and/or materials.
