Essentially there is a property management company that finds investors to pay for the build of duplexes that are then sold for 30%-40% more than the cost to build.

I want to add him to 50% ownership so we can both manage the property and access the cash flow.

I would greatly appreciate feedback from those with experience in property management or similar challenges.

Hello - I have few friends that are buying empty lots around us, playing a role of GC to build a house (have learned it over the years with education and experience) and sell it.

I self manage enough properties that I doubt they would question me meeting the hours.So I don't keep a time log.

Typically about 75-125 people in the room and probably half or more own or manage rentals. 

Go work for a property manager.

I thought just hiring a property manager would make it really easy.  

Here’s a detailed breakdown of these two types of markets and the factors that contribute to each:Cash Flow Market, a cash flow market is one where rental income exceeds the expenses of owning the property (mortgage, taxes, insurance, maintenance, and property management), resulting in positive monthly cash flow for the investor.Key Characteristics:High Rental Yields: Properties typically have high rental yields compared to their purchase prices.Stable or Slow Appreciation: Property values increase slowly over time, if at all.Lower Property Prices: Generally, property prices are lower, making it easier to achieve positive cash flow.Higher Rental Demand: Strong demand for rentals due to economic factors, demographics, or local employment conditions.Factors Contributing to Cash Flow Markets:Economic Stability: Stable job markets and steady local economies that support rental demand.Rental Market: High percentage of renters compared to homeowners.Affordability: Affordable property prices relative to rental income.Local Policies: Landlord-friendly laws and regulations.Appreciation Market, an appreciation market is one where property values increase significantly over time, offering substantial capital gains upon sale, but rental yields may be lower, resulting in lower monthly cash flow.Key Characteristics:High Property Value Growth: Significant annual increases in property values.Lower Rental Yields: Rental income may not cover the monthly expenses, leading to lower or even negative cash flow.Higher Property Prices: Generally higher property prices, which can make it harder to achieve positive cash flow.Strong Economic Growth: Rapid economic growth, population influx, and development.Factors Contributing to Appreciation Markets:Economic Boom: Strong local economy with job growth and high-paying industries.Population Growth: Influx of people moving to the area, increasing demand for housing.Infrastructure Development: Significant investments in infrastructure, amenities, and services.Desirability: High quality of life, good schools, and attractive neighborhoods.I hope this information finds you well. 

I think it would be a good candidate for mid term rentals, but I don't want to manage it.
