For your first one, I think the condo route is solid because it (should) be minimal maintenance and lower price points which make the ROI actually work with a long-term tenant.

This deal highlights our ability to execute fast transactions and maximize returns with minimal hold time, thanks to efficient teamwork and market insight.

My strategy would be to have a property manager do pretty much everything, I'm okay with minimal cashflow because we both have great W2 jobs. 

The property required no renovations, allowing for a quick turnaround with minimal investment.

Investor Consequences: Longer Tenure, Lower Vacancy Rates: Reduced tenant turnover can help minimize vacancy rates, saving costs related to marketing, leasing, and repairs.

Fortunately I was able to get out of my contract with comparatively minimal loss. 

Keeping your costs low by choosing investments with minimal fees will further enhance your returns.

By implementing these practices, I've been able to maintain a high occupancy rate, minimize vacancies, and build positive relationships with my tenants.

Looking for the best way to purchase another property with minimal cash up front.

Cut free of your "golden handcuffs" with the minimal interest rates on these properties and sell them all (or the biggest headache properties) and do a 1031 exchange into a bigger property or package of multi families where the cash flow is better, numbers make sense, and you can streamline property maintenance and management rather than having 6 different single family homes.
