If you're comfortable with the idea, you could also work with a syndicatior to get your toes wet in a locale with less capital risk than doing it solo.

I'm comfortable with crypto, your situation may be different.

If you are looking for a drastic change in rate, have them increase the deductible if you are comfortable with it.

Loopnet.com has some interesting properties and I love to see what is for sale in my area, but I think I've been looking at loopnet for about 20 years and never ever found a property that was price so I (not my broker) could make a profit.The best way to find a property where you can make the best profit is by putting on some comfortable shoes and literally walk like a real man, unannounced, directly into real estate offices, make it very clear that you are INVESTING FOR DOLLARS, ask what they have for sale and they almost always have what is called 'Pocket Listings' that are properties their good clients want to sell, but they don't want to put the property on an MLS service for some reasons, or they want to see if they can sell the property, first, and then list it on MLS.Most often, the brokers pull something out and then comes the really hard part.

I know my numbers and comfort level and I am not rushing to buy blind because I think it's the only property like this - it's not.

Personally, I still feel more comfortable with BRRRR becasue there are many uncertainties these days.

I am an out-of-state owner of a property in a D neighborhood in Raleigh.I will not be renewing current tenant's lease and I need a new property manager for the next tenant and I will probably need them to find the next tenant as well.Any recommendations for property managers comfortable w/ D neighborhoods?

That would be job 1 if I were in your shoes.  

It all depends on the client base, property details and your comfort level.
