I don't see where you can squeeze anything more out of it. 

What's the point in trying to invest remotely in markets where the numbers aren't THAT different and you have to rely on the honesty and kindness of strangers? 

If anyone is thinking of joining message me and I can go over everything.They helped me start and get to where I am today.I see a lot of people complaining about how bad it is.

I recommend doing a house hack where you are at.

Rent control has worked exactly no where.

In this section, I want to emphasize the benefits of seller carry financing, share success stories where it enhanced the deal, and highlight the tax advantages of utilizing a 1031 exchange.Seller carry financing is a powerful tool that allows investors to purchase properties with flexible terms and minimal upfront capital.

Back then, prices were much better, and turnkey marketers could make a decent fee.As prices increased, many turnkey providers had to move to less desirable areas (I know people are always looking blame other people but in reality blame it on yourself for being the investors that picked bad areas and did not do due-diligence and buy assets where the numbers worked with 10-20% economic vacancy), and now that gap has essentially disappeared.

Where technically I am not making payment to my mortgage, renters are.

I also own properties in landlord-friendly states where there's no rent control, so I don't need to pay someone to leave in order to increase the rent.To address the other points in your post:This is why having a proper purchase and sale agreement is so important.

I'm not sure if this guy even kept books for his car washes because when I asked for the financials, the listing agent literally emailed me a piece of paper that had some numbers written down so I told him I wanted copies of the actual income tax returns that he submitted to the IRS and he sent that over so that is where I got the numbers from.
