I see a lot of wannabe investors, newbies, aggressively scaling investors, and very successful large scale investors on the site, but the little guys like myself tend to get lost in the wind on bp. 

Any amount of leverage is over leveraged on a deal like that ... scale that up to 20 and you will be working for the properties, their PMs and turnkey operators ... even if your numbers are correct (which they are not, I promise), all that work and all that risk for 20x$100 = $2000/mo is crazy.

Hey allAs mentioned before I am looking to scale up my portfolio in Houston and I am looking specifically in Stafford, Missouri City,Meadows place, Sugarland,KatyI'm more of a sfr b- to c level investor when it comes to deals ...I want people in my units that are renters and want to be renters...ya I'm aware of scale with multi family..I'm not against the idea but I like the diversification of location esp in Houston...I don't want a hurricane damaging a big chunk of my portfolio at once if flooding is localized...I'm not opposed to MF but the numbers have to be really goodWith that said...

However, after some more thought we realized once we scale this having a separate business account and credit card for each project seems a bit clunky and overwhelming.

I am finding better deals that cash flow is stronger in SFHs compared to MFHs, but am worried about scale with SFHs.

Id need to find a way to cut the startup capital down, or verify that it could support more than 50 units for economies of scale.

House hack- learn the business, learn how to be landlord, learn how to find a great deal on a small scale and built equity while you do that.

-After reading several posts regarding the BRRRR cash flow, it seems that a $300/$400 cash flow average per month might be achievable...in order to make the effort worthy, this strategy needs to scale to many more properties (50-100+ rentals)...I am wondering how an investor can manage a bunch of rental properties scattered around a city?

We, however, normally recommend though that you go as big as you can go as that's when economy of scales kicks in, especially with a 3rd Party Management Company. 

Just seeing if any of you know of a private lender that has a loan program that allows investors( who buy and hold real estate) who are looking to scale up their business to purchase a property(without the need to renovate) that's on the market with the intent of refinancing 6months or a year later?
