For now I'm perusing the market as a kind of hobby to see what's out there.Cash flow options seem pretty slim in my area, south of Seattle.However, when I look around the country, there are comparatively ridiculous-seeming options.

Other than that, it is slim pickings.

What expenses can you slim down?

I have not been a client, but I would say chances of scam are very slim. 

Of course not all will be interested in your house, some may have purchased already, but it is something to start with.I probably have 5000 people or more in my database, but the chances of any 1 of them being interested in buying your house are pretty slim. 

Although the odds of something bad happening are slim.....stuff does happen.If you could find out who is in charge of this you could at least sign sort of agreement regarding liability....?

Slim to none reliable outlets have this product active right now that is underwritten as a DSCR.

@Teekap Pate there is a very slim chance you will find something on the far north or far south side of Chicago on the lake front at that price point and even less likely chance you will find one that works with the HOA dues.In my opinion, you'd be better off looking for condos in those areas that need renovation - flipping.

Inventory is exceptional slim in most of Johnson and Jackson Counties so there is good appreciation potential in both counties.

I did everything else.......the legwork to find the property, I purchased it, I used my crew and subs to do all of the necessary work, I got it on the market and sold it.The split was 50/50, and sometimes slim or even a loss.Think about how this scenario would work for you.
