@Troy Bullock I provide a seller net estimate for a property price range when I go to a listing appointment.

I can send you a list of contacts in Ohio to help you build your team, property manager.

One of the things you can do is reach out to a few banks/lenders and have them add you to their list of "Approved Builders" just make sure you have the time and crew because it can get busy fast.

How do they compare to other local listings?

Buy and Hold: Norfolk (Best Cashflow Potential), VB (Townhomes tend to work well, Green Run is a great area for cashflow), Chesapeake, Newport News, Suffolk (Less Military presence which is why i would put last.)STR: VB (in the proper zones if you have the money $850K+), Norfolk(Ocean View area specifically but have to watch out for the AICUZ restrictions), Leave the restPart of that decision process is distance to that I would need to travel to deal with rehabs, I hate dealing with the tunnels so I would almost always pick places on the peninsula last since I am based in Chesapeake.

You can always pick those up after the lease ends via a judgement in court - you will have the same odds of collecting unpaid rent (close to 0).Sometimes we take it personally when folks do stuff like pay late every month - landlords live longer when we learn to not take things personally.

Thus you can be seen by people who need more space.But if people need less than 10, you will be on the list somewhere.

So I always just look up my competitors listings and see what they're charging and how full they are....which amenities do they have, etc....You can double-check with the sites you mentioned, but to rely only on them would be foolish IMHO....

Unless hiring a listing agent, any ways to boost my leads?

I target realtors who have new construction listings and also target new home builders as end buyers.
