@Jin ZhangI would only measure pros and cons against a goal.

Low prices enable more people to buy, limiting demand for rental properties so rents decline (in inflation-adjusted dollars).Population Growth: In areas with growing populations, demand outpaces supply, driving up property prices.

One issue I see with this is that I do not have a real estate license so I don't think that would create any issues with STR management, but as for MTR management it seems like there are certain limitations without a license - any feedback on that would be appreciated-Staging properties primarily for FSBO's as I know properties listed by realtors will typically have an in-house staging offering.

Pretty much everything I have seen and read is:Find out the sellers motivation/problem and speak to solving that issue.Give an offer but explain how you got your numbers.Other than that, it seems pretty limited for negotiating information. 

That's Property Management 101.If your PM didn't have this lined up and didn't make you aware of this limitation upfront, that's a red flag.

For those with limited funds, starting your journey through wholesaling, can be a smart move.

After all, square footage is about more than raw measurements; it’s about how seamlessly the space integrates into the home’s overall living enviroment.If you’re serious about making that office “count,” consider checking local guidelines or even chatting with a reputable appraiser in the Phoenix area..from what I’ve heard they’ve handled properties like this before.

I believe this is correct, but only limiting to 4 total.

The "Initial Filing" is extremely important to get this right the 1st time as there are limited safe harbors for mistakes to avoid the penalties.

I’m not claiming to know it all—I’m here to learn, build relationships, and grow.Here’s what I bring to the table:A strong understanding of leveraging Net Operating Income (NOI) to secure financing and reduce out-of-pocket costs.Experience in negotiating deals and identifying opportunities, especially in the LA market where many multi-family properties are under $2 million.Skills in managing larger properties, from scheduling repairs and upgrades to optimizing operations for long-term value.The ability to use AI tools for data analysis, market insights, and deal projections to help us act quickly and efficiently.I’ll be upfront—my funds are limited after dedicating the COVID years to supporting my family, but I have the work ethic and expertise to find and manage properties that perform.
