Send me a message and we can schedule a short phone call and I answer any general questions you have and hopefully get you going.Another option is go to one of your local auctions and talk to people bidding on properties.

For example, a broker that cold calls an operator and says they're with Cushman or Marcus Millchap will have a different experience than a broker that says they're with XYZ brokerage. 

@Drew Sygit and Michael Symthe.I'm just the neighbor in "Little Detroit" called Toledo hehe.Feel free to message me with any questions and I'd be happy to assist.All the best 🙏

is it worth offering discounts on rent and asking the tenant to fix minor issues themselves rather than calling the landlord, this to avoid property management company expenses? 

He called me a few hours later and stated he had been "out of town".

Hey there, I would be happy to give you my thoughts on your strategies if you want to set up a call. the underlined statement is completely incorrect though unless I am misunderstanding:" Nearby Rural: Limited development might mean slower changes to the landscape but potentially fewer surprises.

If you'd rather not deal with tenant calls or maintenance issues, a manager might be worth the cost.You've put some great thought into your plan.

Multiple times I was called over to fix doors that had been pulled off the hinges, Outlet covers that had been pulled off and broken, towel rods and toilet paper holders pulled off of walls, stuff put down the drains causing back ups.

These so called professionals enjoyed taking your money to do the transactions but become as silent as rats when there is a mistake.

Call around to a few companies that may need that, and see what they pay/would pay for storage.
