Dont care about what other people think, be smart with your fake money and buy physical assets that will appreciate on a smaller scale while we see some awesome deals come up in the next 6 months then liquidate them back to cash and buy those assets. 

@Greg Todrank There is actually a fair amount of differences and particulars to pay attention to with trailers/manufactured housing vs conventional built. 

Will buying a new manufactured home (Trailer/Mobile Home) and placing it on a foundation make a good rental property?

You drive for dollars to learn the areas and track which homes you identified as ones that then get renovated and then you watch the numbers to learn the scale.

Mainly that it was a pretty big distraction from my W2 job and I quickly realized single family BRRRR wouldn't scale quick enough to meet my goals. 

Pueblo holds the Colorado State Fair, has the Colorado State University - Pueblo, employs defense, steel manufacturing and agricultural businesses. 

If you have a good team and good systems and smart oversight and management, you can scale in SF or apartment buildings or multi, it doesn't really matter.

But once I do, I wondered how to begin acquiring contractors in such a rural area where there isn't much choice for miles when it comes to builders and GC's that can handle scale.

When you are new it's going to be hard to sell investors on your expertise in finding them large-scale deals so building relationships and figuring out how to find a niche in the market will serve you well.

Hi guys --I'm a brrrr investor and looking to hire my first full time employee.I am looking to scale and do 6-10 properties a year in a city 100 miles from me.
