Hello Fellow Investors,As investors continue to scour the internet looking for multi-family deals hoping not to step on a land mine.

A recent ad on the internet mentioned that Lakeland, FL was one of the fastest growing real estate markets in the US, don’t know.

I have one rental that I plan on keeping bedrooms carpeted, only because of the layout and the existing flooring that I know I can't match.

21 years ago I decided that I didn't want Property Management to a full-time job even though I was going to self-manage each property.Now I have 28 apts with 60 or so tenants in 8 multi-family buildings in Brooklyn, NYC.I use a LOT of technology including electronic rent collection, electronic locks, internet controlled Thermostats, WiFi Cameras, Cloud Based CRM, Electronic Signatures (DocuSign), automated expense payments, etc.

For that amount, just run a model you find off the internet.

My local NextDoor App has had a thread complaining about bike week guests at air bnb houses for a week now, while AZCentral.com has run a couple stories about non HOA neighborhoods changing their CCRs or similar restrictions by hiring a lawyer to tally a neighborhood owner vote and then setting forth the changes.What seemed like the early days of the internet now does not as much...

I am heavily relying on the internet and hopefully feedback from the discussion taking place on this forum to guide me through this journey. 

It didn't have glowing reviews as well when I searched the internet for 5 mins. 

Did a realtor bring it to you or did you just see it like on the internet?

This is your investment I wouldn't rely on half advice from the internet (myself included!)
