My first objective is to start a property management company before owning my own properties.

@Raymond Hill Before giving an answer it would be helpful to understand your goals, objectives, constraints, budget and investing experience. 

If you pick the most qualified applicant based on objective criteria such as those, you should be okay. 

If you provide us with more clarity around your budget, goals and objectives, I'm sure someone will be able to guide you. 

Make a list of all of the objections that you are receiving. 

I have read posts here on BP where some investors only want to have a couple of properties so their objective is to pay off the mortgage in order to increase their cash flow. 

Objective: Put my “rent dollars” to more effective use, and continue investing in commercial real estate as soon as possible, even if that means going the SFR route for a bitf.

I would also like to add that you should try to refine your goals and objectives.

And continue educating yourself but beware of the shiny object syndrome, FOCUS on wholesaling first, then move on to another strategy.Good luck and you have a goldmine of information here on Biggerpockets so use it!

You want to get quality not quantity of leads.
