Any one of us can suggest a platform that works for us but that doesn't mean it will fit your needs. 

I pay about $1000 a month for multiple platforms total to find owners info and send them text messages and emails.

Have you tried some of the equity agreement platforms? 

@Nicholas SawyerHey Nick, welcome to the BIggerPockets platform.

There are a few platforms out there that exclusively cater to military landlords renting to military tenants.  

I'm very careful posting on Social Platforms as well.Good luck with your new W2.

It also means you have to figure out if it is a good investment yourself (with your advisors).Then there's several crowdfunding platforms that let you lend to RE backed deals.Good luck!

that totals 23%  and while you might get there self managing I dont think you will get close to that if you have to have PM manage.. and as others said  location  ( snow rain)  desert makes a difference.. tenant quality ( nice tenant Vs tenant that is rough on house )  I think 40% for self manage gets you in the safe zone if you do better thats wonderful..  50% for fully managed if you do better thats wonderful.. but to cut your numbers razor thin then think U made a bad buy when cost run higher is more on the lines of gambling or wishful thinking.

Reaching out on this platform is great, but I suggest you become a member of the local real estate Meetup groups, like North Houston REI, 713 Houston Area, and Wholesale Nation.

Recently, I have started reading a book about real estate and listened to some podcasts on this platform.
