I was in a similar spot with a high paying W2 when I first started investing in real estate.I took the principles from BRRRR and Long Distance Real Estate Investing from David Greene's books and went at it.

Hi Bracken,I would highly recommend reading David Greene's Long Distance Real-Estate Investing if you havent done so.

Quote from @Jaycee Greene: Great question, @Jay Fayz. 

The other picture (with the green boxes) is the return for possible scenarios - MTR, STR, LTR - but all have negative cashflow.

@Max KulishovGreat way to put it, @Jonathan Greene.

Quote from @Michael Smythe: @Steve K.Recommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

I Agree with Joe Gore.If you're green, you grow.
