haha I am willing to learn, read, and research a lot but I wouldn't be interested in spending my weekends fixing or flying to see properties, etc.4.

In FL I can get my broker's license after 2 years as an active agent and start my own brokerage from a home office to be fully independent with minimal overhead for E&O and programs that are included in my brokerage fees now, maybe $5k/yr total overhead with a home office.

I intend to fly out and do/oversee any rehab needed so I will limit any foreseeable major work (structural) to be done.

An existing system that otherwise may be considered "working" may not fly under new regulations.

We have a lot of experience in that sub market and he knew that it’d be hard to sell to non local people quickly because they only like the strongest sub markets like Vestavia Hills, Hoover or Homewood.

I wasn't willing to waste any more time/money/associated costs trying to find a home and get into a bidding war, so I went all in knowing I had a renter in my pocket.Challenges - finding a home that at my price point, in a growing city, and was in good enough condition that more cash wasn't going to fly out of my pocket and be in the home for more than its worth.

It is about 2 hours as crow flies.

All of the tests that I gave her she passed with flying colors so by default I had to give her a chance and she started off great paying rent ahead of time, very low maintenance just an ideal tenant.

After research I would fly to Cleveland with pre set appointments and spend a week getting to know some people that may make up your team and view some properties to purchase and areas to invest.
