@David C. when I started protecting my assets over 10 years ago Statutory Trusts were not around. 

I think this would be more of a long-term hold for cashflow purposes, however it seems minimal to start, and I feel there is likely little to no appreciation with this property. 

I'm finally about to get started and decided to go the "build to rent" route.

I own 2 small LTRs and want to wholesale to earn some capital so I can start flipping and STRs. 

Although 5k is a great start, the Airbnb market is very competitive and you will need more set aside in order to properly acquire an investment property.

I started with an afternoon every other week, which was changed to an afternoon every week.So I put issues into 3 buckets: emergency (a pipe is leaking), within 24 hours (toilet running), and non-pressing (a door is not closing on its own), which is where most things landed and are handled that way.

Check out some local meetup groups in your area and start learning.Good Investing... 

My target purchase price is under $1.7M and prefer cosmetic fix to start with.

We need to drastically cut rates to entice buyers, it's the start of the fall.
